Journal backups

Journal backups are automatically created in WINPACCS Accounting when various events occur and are uploaded to WINPACCS Cloud. These backups can be used to reset a journal to an earlier status if an error occurs. The restore is logged. If the restore – in addition to overwriting incorrect postings – also overwrites at least one already uploaded closing, this closing must be deleted by WINPACCS Support. In this case, the restore in WINPACCS Accounting requires a verification code. For more information on critical restores, please refer to the WINPACCS White Paper Request Verification Code for Critical Journal Restores which you can download at: www.winpaccs.com.
