Explanation of KwikSALESTM Backup/Restore Options

Backup Type: Data, only backs up the applications data files.

Archive Name: File will have a "date coded name" if checked, otherwise the archive file name will always be Backup.zip.  NOTE: If Backup zip is selected (Dated Name NOT checked) each successive backup archive file will copy over the previous archive backup file WITHOUT ANY WARNING.  So beware of that fact. 

Recursive Directories: If checked, all sub-folders under the application folder/directory will also be archived.
