Activity Exchange can produce Immediate Backups. Q. What is an Immediate Backup? A. Normally Activity Exchange Backups are scheduled to be either Weekly, on a Friday, or Monthly on the first day of the month. An Immediate Backup is an 'On-Demand' Backup that sends the Backup to you straight away. Q. Why have Immediate Backups? A. If all you want is a safety copy of your information then scheduled Backups are the answer. They happen automatically and you can't forget to do them. These Backups can be used for offline processing of some kind but that's awkward if you have to wait for the next scheduled Backup to happen. With Immediate Backups you get an immediate copy of your data which you can use there and then. Q. What data can I get as an Immediate Backup? A. You can get Immediate Backups of your Activities or your Person records. You can find out more about these Backups here Activities Backups and here Person Backups. Q. How do I get an Immediate Activites Backup? A. Go to your Clubs page on Activity Exchange, click on "Diary Download". Logon if needed. You can then choose what you want in your Backup and what format you want to download it in. This form of Immediate Backup is targetted at producing your Bulletin/Newsletter offline but the data can of course be used for anything. Q. How do I get an Immediate Person Backup? A. Go to your Clubs page on Activity Exchange, click on "Edit People". Logon if needed. Click on the Backup button. Your Backup will be sent by email to whoever is in the "Current Members" email group just like a scheduled Person backup. |
