| | Which files to include in a Sage 50 Accounts backup |
| Description | When you take a back up of your Sage 50 Accounts data, you can choose what file types you want to include in the backup. You can either select all types, or you can select specific types. For example, you may want to take a backup of only your Report Files. 
If you're unsure what each of these files are, below we've listed them and what they contain. |
