This export allows you to export all records within selected transaction registers for a certain time period. FirstOffice has a multi-year database, where all transactions are saved in full. After a few years, as the database grows, the time required to create a back-up increases. With this feature, you can reduce the time needed to carry out the daily back-up by only backing up those transactions that fall within a specified period, for example the current year only. If using this function, you should ensure you create a full back-up at the end of the previous financial year. To restore the database, you should import two files: the "historical" archive back-up, and the most recent back-up file from the current year. In both cases, use the 'Automatic' or 'Automatic manual file search' import functions in the System module.

To use this feature, check the registers you need to back up, and set the time period and use the Backup Comment to describe the back-up file (up to 40 characters are permitted). This description will be shown in the list of importable files shown by the 'Imports' function. Click [Run] to proceed.

Then, give a file name and destination to the file and click [Save].
