Backup & Restore
Protecting your financial data is essential. This tool helps you create backups and restore them if necessary.
Navigation: Administrator -> Backup / Restore

Creating a Backup
Clicking the Create and Download Backup button will generate a complete, compressed copy of your database (`.sqlite.gz` file). It is highly recommended to do this regularly and store the downloaded file in a secure, separate location (e.g., a cloud drive, an external hard drive).
Restoring from a Backup
This is a powerful but dangerous action. Restoring will completely overwrite your current database with the data from the uploaded backup file.
WARNING: Any data entered since the backup was created will be permanently lost. Always create a fresh backup before performing a restore.
- Select the `.sqlite.gz` backup file you wish to restore.
- Type "RESTORE" into the confirmation box to enable the button.
- Click the Restore from Backup button.
For security, restored backups are automatically set to an 'unregistered' state. You will need to re-enter your activation code via the License page after a restore is complete.
