Can someone tell me how to import snapshot into our test tenant?
How to import snap shot into test tenant
Hello
Do you want to restore a snapshot of your live tenant over an existing test tenant? Or do you mean import a snapshot from outside the site, such as a training or demo snapshot?
I’m attaching complete steps for creating a Snapshot of Live and restoring the Snapshot in a new empty tenant, such as for Training.
When a Snapshot is restored from an external source, Use Import Snapshot button to import the downloaded Snapshot, then follow instructions from #4 on page 2, through step 7.

Hi
In Acumatica, we have a screen called "Tenant" (SM203520). On this screen, there's a button labeled "Import Snapshot." This button lets us easily bring in snapshots that we've downloaded or that are available into the system.

one the snapshot is created, you can change visibility which will remove the ID from tenant ID: .

then you can switch between tenants, in this case, I am going from Tenant ID 2 to "3”

then you can restore the snapshot that was taken for tenant 2 without having to export/import!
