RapidStart Configuration package

Hope someone can help - in 2013R2, all the paperwork says the configuration packages are great for setting up ADDITIONAL companies after the first one is set up. Can anyone confirm please that if I set all the tables up in a new package, export it to excel; delete all the data and enter my FIRST company and then apply the package that that can work just as well ???

Thanks in advance

Welcome to DUG

RapidStart Services helps you gain an overview of the setup process of your new company by providing a worksheet in which you can set up the tables often involved in the configuration process of new companies. As you do this, you can create a questionnaire to guide your customers through the collection of setup information. Your customers have the option of using the questionnaire to set up application areas, or they can open the setup page directly and do the setup there. Most importantly, RapidStart Services helps you, as a customer, prepare the company with default setup data that you can fine-tune and customize. Lastly, when you use RapidStart Services, you can configure and migrate existing customer data, such as a list of customers or items, into the new company.
