So, Why move information to a history file?
The main reason is speed. This file contains 1
line per clock in entry made.

Your computer will have to search though 1000s of
these lines(called records) while processing certain information.

By moving to a history file with the same structure as the punches file. We can compact the main file and retain the information for history reports that may be created in the future.

How often should I do this? 
About every 2 or 3 months. Be Careful to select
a date that is not in your current period. I do not check for this.

Finally, you CAN RESTORE data from the history
to the current file.(This should only be done when a mistake was made because it could ruin your files.)
