Chapter 33 Backup
Backup helps you create your backup strategy, first by listing options for backing up.
The basic idea of backing up is having an extra copy of your Data File if you ever need. Built-In Backup is the feature of Big Business Server that makes copies, automatically.
Additionally, you may want to copy these copies to a safe place using another routine. There are many options for copying to another computer, removable drive, or services.
Backup Controls
Backup Controls are powerful and let you choose most aspects of making backups.
Backups are extra copies of your Data File, for today, yesterday and the day before. These may be handy if something is accidentally deleted and you want to look it up.
Please contact support@bigbusiness.com for help setting up and discussing options.
