export from one BC company and import into a new BC company

Posted on by 105
We made a false start last year with BC. We have all our customers, dimensions, recurring journals, etc set up exactly how we want them, but we entered only one month of FY 2023 data before abandoning the project. Now we would like to start again with FY 2024. I can ask our partner to erase the data for FY 2023 so that we can start over, but I'm wondering if there is a not-too-complicated way I can do it myself.

Perhaps an alternative would be to export my COA, customers, recurring journals, and dimensions from the old company and start fresh, importing this info into the new company. Is is possible to export this info from one company and import into another?

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Yes, you can use Configuration Packages to export/import data in a company or between companies
