Restore previous BAQ from back-up

,

Is there an easy way to restore or recover a BAQ that was overwritten? I did not export the Original BAQ before overwriting it. It was overwritten yesterday. I don’t want to restore from backup to Live. But if needed, I can possibly restore DB to Pilot, as of two days ago. (And export it from there)Any thoughts?

Not that I’m aware of. I’m sure it’s stored in a table so you theoretically could pull it out. And do an update in PROD. That’s way to risky IMO. We all know what Epicor says about direct dB interaction. :upside_down_face:

I’d restore the backup of PROD to a test instance. Login to the test instance and pull out the BAQ. Then just import the BAQ into PROD.

Thanks, that is what i will do. I did the test in test, but i did not export the current version that was in live before importing the updated version in live. It appears there were a Bunch of changes done in Live that i was not aware of. ( I typically export the file out before updating or making changes) However this time I didn’t.

Thanks for your reply Chadd.
That is what I did. I restored the latest copy of our full backup to Pilot grabbed the file, then reverted Pilot back to it original state. We use Pilot for a second Sandbox (behind Test).
Thanks again

Glad it worked! Always happy to help other Epicor users!

Don’t forget to add your vote for Source Control. Storing all data in the database is a great idea. Storing code…well, you know. :wink:
