Hi All,
what is the difference between Point-in-Time restore prod to sandbox and Database refresh for UAT in D365FO,
what will happen if we do database refresh instead of Point-in-time restore prod to sandbox.
Regards,
Akbar
Hi,
I think the main difference is that PITR can help you to restore an older version of Prod database to UAT and DB refresh can only refresh the current DB of Prod to UAT only.

Microsoft maintains automated backups of the business and financial reporting databases for 28 days for Production environments and 7 days for Sandbox environments.
Refresh Database - A database refresh lets you copy the latest transactional and financial reporting databases of your production environment into the target, sandbox UAT environment.
Point-in-time restore prod to sandbox - Restore the database from Prod to Sandbox with an automatic backup taken at an earlier date.
Thanks,
