I tried to create a company and I follow these stpes
Create the back up: TOOLS > BACKUP
Then go to File → Company → New Company
Enter Company Name
OPEN NEW COMPANY and go to TOOLS > RESTORE and appear this message
“Restoration of the backup was interrupted because the company 50 is already in the database.”
why appear this message?
The backup has the old company name so when you try to restore it sees it already exists.
So you can create a backup.
Then Rename the company to your new company.
then restore the backup to recreate the old existing company.
Do you want them in the same database? Or seperate databases?
Are you looking to create a TEST company you can play with or a new company that is has no data?
Creating a Test company is , should always be done in a new database. this way you can test objects without disturbing live system.
Savatage!
I will show my error message “Restoration of the backup was interrupted because the company 50 is already in the database.”, I dont understand you very well what i have to change? Can you explain me again?

Are you restoring in same database or other database?
If same database then first rename the Consolidation Company to “Consolidation Company Previous” using File–>Company–>Rename
and then restore the backup.
Yes is the same data base.
then rename the company first and then restore the backup.
I have two question
I have to rename the back that I created with the name of Consolidation Company Previous?? OR
In the step 4, I created a new company and this new company I have to name as Consolidation Company Previous??
Then I have to restore the back in the new company that I created?
Mohana, I have to rename, the new company that I will created, or what I have to rename?
No need to create new company in step4.
After taking backup…rename the existing company and then restore the backup.
Sorry Mohana, I bit mistake from my side. I have to restore in a different data base, in this case I have to create a new company right, and then restore?
No need…you can directly restore…it will automatically create company
Mohana
Until know I only created the back up,
So the next step is, in the same “set up company database or other company database”, go to TOOLS > RESTORE and it will create other company? I am correct?
