Posted on by Community Member

Hello everyone,

I have office 365 with several licenses of dynamics 365 enterprise and I would like to know how I can remove the test instance. I have disabled the demo data from admin but many records still appear.
How can I restart a blank instance?

Thank you

Which Dynamics 365 product are you talking about?

It's the same as with Office 365 - there are several products included in the package and when you have a question, you should make clear whether you're talking about Word, Excel, Exchange or so.

In this forum, you can use the "category" tag to indicate that, but you've set it to "Other".

Dears,

How can we clear the Demo data for Dynamics 365 (ERP) ?

There is class to do so but it seems to be expired.

Thank you,

Hi Kaled,

Reading your latest reply, I do assume you are talking about 'Finance and Operations'.

Have a look at a similar thread: community.dynamics.com/.../737040

The class will be/is depreciated as of a certain version.

Hi Kaled,

Have also a look at this blog post: kaya-consulting.com/how-to-start-with-empty-ax-database-in-your-local-vm

Probably this will help you.

Noted, i checked the link, our situation is that we want to download a local VM and not Azure.

Seems there is no solution for removing Demo data on Local VMs.

Thank you,

You can take the database from a VM deployed to Azure and restore it locally.
