We are asked this question often, and recommend a daily backup of critical data. These backups should be tested and also kept off-site in case of disaster.
While Incremental backups may be alright for some of your data files, this type of backup has never been supported by Sage (Accpac). Sage backups should be performed using a daily DBDUMP , and at least a weekly FULL backup of the \site, \company, \users, and \data folders.
There are a lot of different media types to use for backup. These include:
- CD or DVD
- External Hard Drives
- Flash Drives
- Cloud based solutions such as one drive
We suggest keeping (not overwriting) at least 1 month worth of backup files, for some of your data.
Year end is a good time to take a backup of certain files and keeping this copy in a safe / secure location
