The Database Maintenance job poll job may be one of the most important jobs to be set up. This job backs up the Sage Paperless SQL database to a defined location. This is important because a SQL database is a live, running system and it cannot be backed up by other means. Save the backup file produced by this job with other data/file backups in a safe and secure place. The Sage Paperless Construction system is comprised of SQL data and file data. Backing up both parts are critical to data safety in case the server crashes or has a catastrophic failure.
