M It's essential that you back up your BillPower data on a regular basis. On
Nodd days, you should use a backup disk labled "BillPwr ODD", and on even days,Myou should use a "BillPwr EVEN" backup disk. Every Friday, you should backupMto a "BillPwr WEEKLY" disk, and at the end of every month, you should use oneMlabled "BillPwr MONTHLY". The WEEKLY and MONTHLY backups help protect you inJthe event that you unknowingly back up bad data to the ODD and EVEN disks.
