– Hinawi Software latest ver.
Step 3: Restore the data
– Restore the Hinawi Software Data to the SQL server
– Move the QuickBooks File to the shared folder in the new server
Step 4: Configure Data

Step 5: Schedule Backup
– Schedule Backup of Hinawi Software and QuickBooks in the Server folder (We strongly recommend taking extra backup from this folder to external storage at regular intervals)
The total time will be within one day. It depends on many factors like:
- The number of files.
- The size of each file.
- If the customer has Hinawi only or with QuickBooks.
- The speed of the internet.
- And the most important is the availability of a Qualified IT person.
- Data Storage Solutions: A detailed explanation of the data storage options available, ensuring all data is securely saved and accessible.
– We need a folder in the local drive of the Server. We will store both QuickBooks and ‘Hinawi Software Data in it. users must have full access to the server directory where the data is located. And, we will schedule the daily backup of both ‘Hinawi software and QuickBooks data into the Server folder.
– We strongly recommend having a 250- 500 GB local drive to store the data and backups. if you have lesser storage than this, kindly make sure to clear the old backups and have a minimum 20 GB of Free space on the drive
– Data security is the Customer’s responsibility. We will schedule the backup on the Server. but the user must take care of the data. Take a copy of the latest backup of both QuickBooks and Hinawi into external storage or Google Drive or any suitable storage, then Even if the server crashes or something happens, we can restore it with the backup that you have.
Data Transfer Process: Should any network or transfer issues occur, what is the recommended protocol to ensure minimal disruption, and what actions will your team take to resolve them efficiently?
– Data transfer is simple process. We will copy the data from the old server to new server. If there is any network issue occur, your IT must fix it and give us access again to continue the process.
