0 Paul Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 There's a lot to consider. We have future plans to implement a Blesta -> Blesta importer for this purpose. This would allow people to move companies between installations, so addon -> standalone, or addon -> addon, or standalone -> addon, just moving companies. It isn't very high on the priority list at the moment though, so I don't have an ETA for you. Michael 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or clone the entire thing, then delete the companies I don't need in each instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everything has the company ID attached to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll just have data from the other companies hidden in the database, but if it's all your data, and you aren't selling one of the companies to a 3rd party then I suppose it doesn't matter too much.

I'd need it to be clean. But presumably everything attaches to a company at some point, even if I have to do join queries to link everything back to the company, I guess I can do it.
