Details regarding backup options
When a backup is made in the MYOB Exo Employer Services software, it shows the default settings that have been setup in the Backup Options screen. At the time of making the backup, the settings can be changed so that backup uses those settings at that time.
The Backup Options screen is where the defaults are setup for when backups are done. To access the Backup Options screen, go to the Utilities menu then select Backup Options.
Listed below are details about the items in the Backup Options screen that can assist with setting up the defaults.
- Backup Directory - Specifies the location that the backup is created to
- Number of Backup Sets - Designates the number of backups that are created before the backup process starts overwriting the existing backup files.
