Bizz Wizz back up can be found in your Windows Bizz Wizz program group window. By clicking on the icon the back up program will run. Before clicking the button for each programme to be backed you must set up the way you wish to backup.

Follow this check list:
1 - Check the year is set to the tax year you wish to back up by using the arrow key next to the tax year box to go up and down though the years. If using the All Button there is no need to set the date as all files are backed up.
Note : The tax year is the year the financial year ends. Setting the date is only required for Accountancy Files.

2 - The bottom section (Click to change the way you wish to backup) sets up the, From, To and How to do your Backup. The right most Icon is Your data and cannot be changed. Next there are 2 Options Back up and Restore. (Backing up from Your Data on the hard disk or restoring to Your Data on the hard disk). When you have set the option you need the To or From Arrow will show. The next Button is to set the type of floppy or hard disk being used 1.44mb or hard disk. Use the hard disk setting for Zip, LS120 or CDRW. Drive:Button is to set the drive in which the floppy has been loaded. A: or B: if set to hard disk then drives A: to J: can be set and the files will be saved to BizzBack directory.

3 - The All Button will back up all files in one go. Say yes to keep last backup if you have room on the disk only.

Copy Ledger to give to Accountant: This option copies the ledger and relevant data to give to your accountant using a memory stick. The program will run directly from the memory stick so there is no need to have the program running on the Accountants computer. To get the program to run, open the memory stick in my computer, double click on the " BIZZWIZZ" folder, then the "BW12" folder, however this folder may have a different name if you have more than one business setup. When this folder is opened you will see a file called "RUN_ME", double click on it and the Ledger should appear on the screen.

If you are using Floppies you may need a lot of disks. It is not Recommended to use floppy disks.
IF YOU ARE ASKED FOR A NEW DISK THEN CHANGE THE DISK. Floppy disks must be cleaned before use.

The AB Keeper, Creditors, Price Book, P.O. Sale. and Invoicing buttons will back up each programs files as well. They are Mostly used when Restoring data, so not to over write every thing.

NOTE: It is not Recommended to use floppy disks as some files are too big to fit on the disk.

DANGER : Never Restore unless you ring us first to check you are doing the right thing as data can be lost by Restoring.

Automatically backup on Main Menu Activation after 3:00 pm : A Backup will be done if you click on or activate the main menu after 3:00pm.

Do Automatic Backup Weekly not Daily : If you have set the above 3:00 option it may be a pest when you have to wait for the backup to be done before you can keep working rather than turn off the option just change it to weekly so the backup is still done.
