Month-End Rollover Safety

Many accounting (and other) systems need do monthly roll-over procedures.   If you have one of these, please check that you are doing backups BEFORE you run the roll-over procedure.  (Just in case in it goes wrong)

Maybe, once upon a time in your office, this procedure was done properly every month, but time has struck.  Things may have slipped!  It's not uncommon for new people taking over roles to be more relaxed about these.  Even more, if the backup hasn't been needed, then the importance may not be evident.  And that's when shortcuts start to sneak in, and shortly after, disaster strikes.  It'll just be the time that you don't backup that it all goes wrong with the rollover.

So - a timely reminder to check your people are doing backups before they do their monthly rollovers. 

Kinetics view is that, when in doubt, always take another backup, you can never have enough backups, and the best ones never get used!
