If your computer is damaged or your data becomes corrupted, you use the Restore Company from Backup tab to restore your company from a backup file.
Before restoring a company
-
Determine the date when valid data you want to restore was most recently backed up.
-
Identify the name and location of the backup file for that date for the company.
The default location for backup files is: C:\Sage100Con\Backup.
- Make sure no other users are logged into the company database.
To restore a company from a backup copy:
- Click Tune Up / Back Up / Restore > Restore Company from Backup.
-
In the Enter the backup file you want to restore box, browse to and then select the backup file from which you want to restore your company database.
-
If you want to restore the data using a different name for the company, leaving the existing company intact, in the Restore as box, type the name you want to use for the copied company.
- If you have installed a new version of Sage 100 Contractor since you backed up your company, select Upgrade the company database to the latest version after restoration.
- Click [Restore Company].
