Reckon Accounts Hosted Notice: Accounts Hosted Backups Deletion
David Scott • 11 May 2022

As you may be aware, Reckon Accounts Hosted users are responsible for creating their own backups via File Menu > Save Copy or Backup. Over the years, there has been a large build-up of backup files stored on the Reckon Hosted system.

Reckon has announced that Accounts Hosted will automatically remove all backup (QBB) files that are over 365 days old, this will occur on the 28th of May and will then be performed on an ongoing quarterly basis. If you have not saved files elsewhere, they will be deleted.
 

Aspen Corporate advises backing up all files ASAP. This has the added benefit of cleaning your transaction log, which will make your files more responsive and quicker.


For information and steps on how to download your Reckon Accounts Hosted Backup (QBB) files, Reckon has information here, with updated terms and conditions that reflect the above changes, please review the latest copy here. For any other questions, or for support speak to our Senior Bookkeeping Manager David Scott
