Is there a way to have SharePoint automatically save a copy of its list (spreadsheet) to a file at the end of the day?
My understanding is that versions are just for backup and are triggered by a single item changing.
Right now we have an excel spreadsheet that we work on each day adding new items and working on them and updating them - then the next day we copy the previous days document and rename it to todays date. Apparently this is for auditing purposes to view activity between different days.
I would like to move to SharePoint since we have a SharePoint 3.0 site on our intranet already setup and I have created a custom list that does everything else but do not see how to have these automatically exported without someone manually saving them.
On a side note, at some point we are moving to SharePoint 2010 so I dont know if that will give us what we need.
EDIT: I think I should be more specific that I want to save the entire contents of the list, not just version a single item. SharePoint seems to only version item by item and not the entire list. Not sure if there is some automated export of list data option available.
