Database duplication to a spare MYOB test file?

Hi WalterP​ 

Yep - we told MYOB this also - I outlined exactly this scenario to MYOB that I do this regularly - but this is no longer possible - I did suggest a sandbox facility for this very purpose.

This is one feature which I have used regularly for the last 10 years and is now trashed.....

The only way around this with the following suggestion

1. test your software on your current file - api posts to the current file cannot happen as a mistake - the requirements for each post are so stringent that it is very difficult to post something without knowing - almost impossible - typically MYOB API spits back an error with the slightest thing wrong.
2. or, backup to the cloud - do a test at will then restore. ...... assuming restore works correctly.

And here lies the problem never restore to 'just test' in case it doesn't work - restore to a sandbox - and check the restored file works.

MYOB has also trashed this capability in their very messy rollout of this change.
