Note: Users will need the permission "Member Administration/Configuration" to enable account backups.

 

The backup function creates a downloadable zip file organized by folder for all core modules that includes: PDF formats of the latest docs or exports of selected items (e.g. audits, issues, CAPAs, dossiers) & CSV exports of most data fields from these tables as you would see them in the application. Currently, the backup does NOT include courses, events, and users tables. This back up utility offers you a means for creating a local backup of all account data beyond the robust disaster recovery protocols that ZenQMS deploys to ensure business continuity. Enabling this option will create a single zip file containing: PDFs of all your exported files (e.g., Documents, Issues, Actions, etc.) and CSV files of all critical tables in the applications (e.g., Controlled Files table, etc.).
