Scheduled Backup

Post by TVSLTD » 28 Mar 2017, 15:23

Apologies if this has been covered many times - I've tried searching, but failed.

Sales 50 Accounts 2017 has a scheduled backup which we wish to implement. The data is on a new Windows 2016 Server, but it appears we can only currently backup to the server's drive(s).

We would like to backup to our local network WDMyCloud drive, but Sage say we can only backup to the likes of GoogleDrive.

So precisely what and how is this utility supposed to be set up such that it will not end up in the Cloud?

I have to say that Sage's Tech. Support were singularly unhelpful here.

You should NOT use it.

Automated backup lead to complacency and ultimatly disasters..

Read my backup guide for more details...
