Understanding the fields
- Backup to restore — picked from the list of previous encrypted backups tied to your account and store; you can’t restore a backup belonging to a different store or account.
- Restore scope: full vs. per-table — a full restore replaces everything with that backup’s snapshot. Picking specific tables instead (for example, just Customers) only touches that data, leaving everything else — like invoices created since the backup — untouched. Use the narrower option when you’re recovering from a mistake in one area, not rolling the whole store back in time.
Restoring the full snapshot rolls back everything to that backup’s
point in time — any sales or changes made after that backup was taken
are lost unless you restore just the specific table you need instead.

The Snapshots on disk list on the same Local Backup & Restore
screen — each dated snapshot shows its file size and a Restore
link, so you can pick exactly which point-in-time backup to roll back
to.
Try it: Sharma Kirana Store
1
Reinstall and sign back in
After his Windows PC is reset for a repair, Rajesh Sharma reinstalls
BillBasket and signs back in to Sharma Kirana Store’s account.
2
Open Restore and pick a backup
He goes to Settings → Backup & Restore → Restore and sees the
list of previous encrypted backups tied to his store.
3
Restore the full snapshot
Rajesh picks last night’s backup and chooses to restore the full
snapshot, bringing back all products, parties like Meena Devi, and
invoice history.
4
Restore just one table if needed
Another time, Rajesh only needs to recover the Customers table after
an accidental bulk edit — he selects just that table from the same
backup instead of restoring everything.
