Storing and managing system files using Import/Export Manager

For current versions of Infor Smart Office, settings files, pre-defined widget definitions, and links are stored in a database (in previous versions, they are stored on the server). This includes files that are located on the file system.

You can also use the MangoAdmin tool to import user files. See Migrating user files from a previous version of Lawson Smart Office.

This topic describes how to use the Import/Export Manager to:

  • Perform a back up of files. Typically, you would do this before modifying configuration files to allow for testing and reverting to previous versions as needed.

  • Move configuration files between installations, for example, from test to production environments.

Note: You must be an Infor Smart Office administrator to perform these procedures.
