We recommend that you back up your rules so that if, for any reason the settings become corrupted and you lose your rules, you are able to restore them. You are also able to restore them by restoring an old version of the whole Raiser's Edge database but this is by far the simpler method.


On the Validatrix Configuration plugin, select the rule to be exported. If the rule has dependencies you only need to select the top rule as all dependencies will be included.



Press the export button on the bottom of the window:


You will be prompted for a filename and location in order to save the rule.


To import a rule press the opposite button:



You will be prompted to select a file to import from. Note that if you already have this rule then you will be prompted to overwrite it. If you do not have the same rule it will simply import the rule without prompting you.
