Your database (i.e. your information) will backup automatically—each day that you use inFlow—to a local folder on your computer. That said, you can also back up your database manually through inFlow’s main menu to save it elsewhere (like an external drive or other computer).

To Backup:

1. Click Main Menu > General > Backup Data.
2. Select the location you’d like to save the backup.
3. Click Next.

When you have a backup of your database it can be used to move your inFlow to another computer (if you have a replacement computer coming into the office) or you wish to re-arrange your set up. It can also be used to reverse import changes as discussed in the section about imports.

To Restore Data:

1. Click Main Menu > General > Restore Data.
2. Select your backup file.
3. Click Next.
