- **[Cancel a Running Backup](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.backup_recover_cancel_backup.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Stop a running backup in Salesforce to fix an error in production data or modify default backup options.
- **[Run a Backup On Demand](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.backup_recover_backup_on_demand.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Aside from scheduled backups, you can start backups on demand in Backup & Recover Next up to three times a day. Run a backup on demand before or after a deployment or maintenance, or any time an additional recovery point is needed.
- **[Manage Customer PII with Data Privacy Requests](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.backup_recover_data_privacy.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Data privacy requests help you protect a customer’s personal data throughout your backup history. Create requests in Backup & Recover Next to apply the required privacy protection to every backed-up instance of a record.
