Archiving charts

For backup and record-keeping, you can configure the Analyst's Notebook archiving feature to make a separate copy of your chart every time you save it. You can decide how many copies to retain, and whether the application monitors their integrity.

Procedure

1. Click File > Options, and then in the Options window click Options > Save
2. Select the Archive on Save checkbox.
3. Choose the number of copies of each chart you want to retain. The default option is set to five charts.
4. Optional: Select the Test Archives for Corruption checkbox to verify your archived files. Analyst's Notebook runs a background check and alerts you if the archive fails.
5. Click OK.

Results

Every time that you save an open chart, a backup copy is saved in an i2 Chart Archives folder, up to the maximum number you specified.
