This process will restore your company data files and customized forms to a previous state. Restoring your backup will overwrite and replace your existing company data, unless you select to restore the backup into a new company. You should make a backup of your current company before restoring your company data.

You must have a Sage 50 backup file to restore your company data using this method. If you backed up using another program or device, you must exit Sage 50 and restore your company data using that same method.

Look in: Choose where your Sage 50 backup file is located.

File name: Enter or select the file name for your Sage 50 backup. Sage 50 backup files use the *.ptb file extension.

Files of type: Choose the Sage 50 Backup (*.ptb) type.

Depending on the quantity of data, the restoration process may take a while to complete. Be patient and do not interrupt the process. If you interrupt the restoration process, you might corrupt the data.
