ORO POS stores both images and data inside the database. So a store needs to set up a practice scheduled backup of database either daily or weekly.
Before you backup
a. Shutdown all terminals.
b. Arrange an external hard drive or cloud based drive like dropbox.
| Database type | Backup Process | Restore |
| Derby Single | Copy posdb folder in the database/derby-single | Move existing posdb folder and replace with posdb from backup. |
| Derby Server | Copy posdb folder in database/derby-server ( if you have created database in different name, you should copy that folder) | |
