Maintaining the System

Reviewing the Status of your License
If you are using a standard (non-hosted) installation, you can view summary information for your existing
licenses or update licensing information at:
Administration > Replicon > Licensing > System Information tab
The summary information for each module license includes:
Applications
Module is the name of the Web TimeSheet edition or module for which the license grants access.
Assigned/Licensed Seats
This is the number of seats included in the license, and how many of each have been assigned to
users.
License Expires
The date the license will expire. You will be notified before a license expires to allow you time to
update your licensing. If you allow a license to expire, the seats associated with that license will be
unavailable until you have a valid license.
Build Period
The build period is a period during which you may install new builds against the license. For exam-
ple, if you have a Web TimeSheet license with a build period of January 1 - December 31, the
license will be valid for any point or service releases available during that time.
Finding out how many Users are Logged In
Before you perform maintenance tasks such as upgrading the system or making hardware changes to the
Web TimeSheet server, you should verify that no users are logged in. The number of users logged in can
be found at:
Administration > Replicon > Licensing
Upgrading Web TimeSheet
If sortware update notifications is enabled in the System Preferences, you will be notified when new ver-
sions of Web TimeSheet are released. You can manually check for updates or the download available up-
dates at:
Administration > Replicon > Software Update
Once you have downloaded a new release, you can upgrade your installation. For information on upgrading,
see the Web TimeSheet Installation Guide.
Setting Up a Database Backup Schedule
Web TimeSheet does not back up your database automatically. Therefore, to prevent data loss, you must
back up your database on a regular basis.
You may choose to set up an automated database backup system, or you may choose to back up your da-
tabase manually using Web TimeSheets Database Backup Utility.
Generated backup files can be restored to Web TimeSheet using SQL Servers Management Tools. For in-
formation on how to restore a backup database, refer to SQL Servers documentation.
For those using a Replicon-hosted/SaaS implementation of Web TimeSheet, Replicon handles the
backup process.
