Software Backup Information

To ensure reliable data recovery in the event of a hardware failure on your EDI computer, you should make certain that you have a backup strategy that includes regular backup of the following folders:

    • \180
    • \810
    • \812
    • \81R
    • \820
    • \832
    • \846
    • \850
    • \855
    • \857
    • \864
    • \997
    • \edisetup
    • \v
    • \wkopy
If you do not see one of the above listed folders on your EDI computer, you do not have that particular document installed and do not need to back it up.

       

  • Make certain that your backup software includes ALL of the above folders, and ALL of the files in the folders; some systems may inadvertantly skip system or program files.
  • We do not recommend backup to CDs as a regular strategy.
  • Make certain that your backup schedule reflects your software use. If you send and receive EDI files daily, your system should be backed up daily. If you send and receive EDI files less frequently your backup may not need to be done daily.
