Back up online files - Web based Software
Hi
Is it just my old-school brain that does not cope with the fact that there is no ability to backup Pro or Lite files as they are web based?? I always like to have a backup before I close a year...
Forum Discussion
That's great but my understanding is that these backups MYOB does are deleted after 6 months.
Did this ever get an answer?
The linked site specifically says
'When working online, you don’t need to back up your company file regularly, as MYOB automatically backs up your data online weekly and retains it for six months.
However, you might want to back up your online file before starting a task that will result in significant changes, such as closing a financial year or importing data. You would also make a backup if you want to archive a copy of the file at a point in time, such as month-end.'
But does not then tell you how to do it??
No I didnt .... Soooo frustrating as I think it is a MUST HAVE function! I have had a few issues where I needed to print old payslips for a clients employee and because I didnt have a back up it was not possible :(
Hi BooksForBiz and jolimont
Sorry for the confusion here
The previously linked help article is specifically for AccountRight which has the option to be both online or offline.
Whereas MYOB Business Lite and Pro are online only software.
There is no option to 'back up' Lite or Pro in the same way that you used to for desktop software.
