Creating a Backup Database

Does it make sense to create an option to create a backup database. The
folks I'm working with aren't set up really well in their office for
automation. I'm helping by automating their invoice process.
So I thought, maybe I should automatically copy backend databases at the
end of the day.
I could just do a query or something. There's probably an easy way to make
a backup.
What do you think?

It is always a good idea to create backups.
