Had a user delete a good bit of repeating orders, we have another live company that we made a backup with, and it contains the orders that were deleted. Is there an easy way to get them into our "live" company without retyping them?
Easy, no. You will have to export from the backup company and import into the Live Company.
Not much experience in this, I exported the SO_Header and Details. Which order do I need to import or do I need to create one file for the import? I tried just importing the header and of course received errors saying no lines and totals were zero.
If you don't mind going one by one, you might take a look at the "Copy From" feature in SO Entry. You'd just need to find a copy of each one you want to re-create.
It won't allow you to copy from another company code, but you can copy from open SO, SO history, and invoice history.
Since there are 2 tables involved you have to make sure you get data from both. You want to Export from SO_Detail and include SO_Header fields - then you import into SO_Header and include SO_Detail fields. Your Sage Business Partner will know how to do this.
