Description of Backup Files

The backup files are, as well as the import files, usually in text format (.txt). The backup files are created during each EDI import and the file name consists of a consecutive number, for example "00000001.txt". If you have entered that 100 backup files shall be saved on the EDI link, the files "00000001.txt" - "00000100.txt" will be created during the first 100 EDI imports.

During the 101st EDI import, the file "00000001.txt" will be overwritten by a new file with the same file name. During the 102nd EDI import, the file "00000002.txt" will be overwritten, etc. The current backup file (created during the last EDI import) is shown with a consecutive number in the window above in the Current number column.

The backup files for an EDI link are saved in a backup directory under the path "\Monwin\edi\backup\<ftg_nr>\<importfilnamn>.txt.0<kopplingsID>\". For example "\Monwin\edi\backup\001\orders.txt.003\" for the EDI link with ID number 3.
