Specifying Number of Saved QuickBooks Company File Backups
You can specify the maximum number of QuickBooks company file backups you want to save in SmartVault. By default, SmartVault saves five QuickBooks company file backups for each QuickBooks company file stored in a vault.
However, you can change the number of QuickBooks company file backups you want to store in a vault based on your needs. For example, you can specify whether you want to keep only the two or three most recent QuickBooks company file backups.
To specify the number of QuickBooks company file backups you want to save:
1. Sign in to the SmartVault portal. For more information, see “Signing In to the SmartVault Portal” .
2. Select the account that contains the QuickBooks company file you want to specify a backup number for.
3. Select the vault that contains the QuickBooks company file.
4. In the right task pane, click View Properties.
5. In the Maximum backups to save field, type the number of backups you want to save for the QuickBooks company files in the vault.
Note: The value you specify is at the vault level and applies to each QuickBooks company file in the vault. You cannot apply a different value to different QuickBooks company files stored in the same vault.
For example, if you have five QuickBooks company files in the vault and you type 5, then you will save five backups for each of the three QuickBooks company files, for a total of 15 backups. If you have five QuickBooks company files in the same vault, you cannot specify that you want to save three backups for one of the QuickBooks company files, but five backups for a different QuickBooks company file in the same vault.
