Back up

When we work in Tally the company data is stored in Hard Disk but for safety a copy of data should always be kept in another media like CD, Floppy, etc. The data can also be kept in Hard Disk. The process of keeping another copy of the data in another place is known as Back Up.

Go to Company Info menu from Gateway of Tally by pressing Alt + F3, select the option 'Backup' there. Then it will take you to "Select Companies to Backup" screen.


There you have to enter the following details:
  • Source : It is generally taken by default. Here the user needs to enter the full directory name where the company data is stored.
  • Destiation : Here the user has to enter the full directory name where the backup data is to be stored.
  • Name of Company : Here the user has to select the names of the company from the given list whose data is to be copied. More than one company can be selected and once the user is done with the selection, the user needs to select End of List and click on 'Yes' at Accept? to start the backup process.
  • Multi Volume Backup : When there is huge volume of data and one media is insufficient to store the complete data then Tally will prompt the user to insert second disk.
Remember that you have to mark the disks serially to maintain the sequence while restoring the backup data.
