Restoring Your Company from a Back Up

Restoring your company simply means that you are opening up a backup copy of your company as new company. If you are restoring a copy of a company that you currently have open, make sure you give the restored company a different name to avoid overwriting your current working copy. Once you have opened a company using the restore feature, check the integrity of its data before you start working on it.

You may want to restore your company from a backup copy when:

  • A data integrity check indicates your current data is corrupted or that your current accounts are out of balance
  • Your company data was lost or damaged
  • You need to report transaction details that have been cleared in your current company file
