    Hi Vcor,

    Cobalt Dynamics CRM Snapshot will add extra entities to your database. Installing Cobalt Dynamics CRM Snapshot will not let you retrieve the deleted account, but it will allow you to recover deleted records from your Audit History in the future.

    The best course of action going forward is to educate users, or remove their delete privileges so that they do not delete important records in the future.

    Is it safe to use Cobalt? Will it affect my database?

    Thank you

    Hi, If you are on CRM online version then I am afraid it will not be possible to get back deleted records. I would suggest talk to MS Support and point to that deleted record using audit feature. They can do some magic and bring back the deleted record.

    Else they can restore DB backup copy also.

    more details on how to identify deleted records:  community.dynamics.com/.../151392

    If found useful, please mark the answer as verified

    Hi,

    I am sorry there is no way to retrieve the deleted account. Here is a suggestion for you remove the delete functionality from your users, just have a system admin to do these critical activities in eCRM.

    Hi Vcor,

    You will not be able to retrieve the deleted account unless a backup of the account was created.
