how to create a duplicate company with all the existing info

rajkumarkamath

Good day,

NAV 5.0, can we create a new company and import all existing information from the existing company to that. Tried copy info from, : having issues , getting message accounting period already exists. Also ,no individual entries show up in that.

Thanks

If "all the existing info" mean all postings included (ledger entries) I'll do it in that way.
Create a backup of existing company data from navision menu Tools -> Backup
Then rename existing company (File -> Company -> Rename) and restore company data from backup (Tools Restore).
If You need just all settings, posting groups .... etc. copied to new company (without postings) then You can use Setup Checklist functionality from Administration -> IT Administration -> General Setup
