Clear  Storage

This operation clears all stored transaction data (including card data) for debit, credit, gift, and loyalty transactions from the terminal's memory.  The Clear Storage operation should only be used after you perform all of the prescribed end-of-day steps including printing the Stored Transactions report (see "End-of-Day Procedure").

IMPORTANT: Once the terminal's memory is cleared, it will not be possible to use the terminal to do any of the following:

• Perform a report generated from the card data previously stored in the terminal's memory, specifically:
   - Transaction Inquiry
   - Stored Transactions
   - Pre-Auth List
• Complete or cancel any open Pre-Auths that were previously stored in the terminal's memory.
