It is very important to backup your Pak Accounting data files on a regular basis. Pak Accounting recommends that you backup often, especially before you update any module to the General Ledger.
This only creates a backup for the company data files (i.e. gln32\xxxxx). If you would like to backup the global files in the GLN32 root directory and/or the WPFORMS folder, select the Backup Global Files (gln32) and the Backup Forms and letters (WPFORMS). Check the box if you wish for Pak Accounting to automatically close and exit when the backup is complete. Files are backed up to the WolfePakBackup folder by company and by date.
To set up icons so that you can run the Pak Accounting data backup process from your desktop, complete the following:
Individual Company
C:\wolfepak\GL4.exe @ABCDE $WP /YBKUP_ABCDE (substitute your company code in place of "ABCDE")
ALL Companies
C:\wolfepak\GL4.exe @ABCDE $WP /YBKUP_ALLFILES (substitute your company code in place of "ABCDE")
NOTE: If you receive a Streaming Error message (i.e. Stream Write Error), then you may have run out of disk space or exceeded your disk quota for the destination drive of your backup.
NOTE: If the backup has errors, the zip file will be renamed to contain the words"_has_errors_". The list of errors will be contained in the text file that accompanies the zip file. These will be located in the WolfePak Backup folder. In addition, a message will appear on the screen notifying you that the backup has errors.
