Restore Data Options

In addition to restoring actual company data, the Restore Data function can also be used to facilitate the setup of a new company by installing a company template file.  These templates have been created by AccuBuild with a full chart of accounts, job phases, property settings, as well as a variety of other master file defaults depending on the template selected. All template files are saved in the \Accubld8\Samples folder and are accessed by clicking on the various options in the Restore File Type box.    Note: when using these templates, be sure to select the Restore Company Properties option to ensure the company global settings are included when the data files are restored.        

Blank Company Templates - Several templates have been created for setting up new companies. These templates contain a chart of accounts, job cost codes, etc. and will make the process of setting up a new company much easier.
