GP 2013 - Setup Test company error

Posted on by 2,410

I'm getting the following  error after setting up a fresh test company and restoring a Live backup over it: " The selected company is not configured as a company of the current Microsoft Dynamics GP system database. You must resolve the database configuration to log in to the company"

I've seen this post (https://community.dynamics.com/product/gp/f/32/p/91083/182784.aspx) and verified that the CMPANYID (Company ID) is the same in DYNAMICS..SY01500 and TEST..SY00100.  The DBNAME in TEST though was 'TEST' so I updated it to the name found in DYNAMICS..SY01500.  However to string length is well over the 11 characters TEST..SY00100.DBNAME is limited to. 

Is there a way to get this test company working?

    I referenced that post in my post, it was helpful to see that they didn't line up.

    In the company database however, the company name is well over 11 Characters, which that field is limited to.
