Hi all! Hope your day is going well!

It's finally the slow season at my company and I wanna jump into the long list of customization projects that have been put on hold. There's only one issue: 

I can't get our information into any of the DB's I create through the Acumatica ERP Configuration Wizard due to the Snapshot being 6GB and the limit of 1.5 for restoring snapshots in the created DB. 

I found this post from four years ago: https://community.acumatica.com/configuration-and-installation-114/import-snapshot-into-test-environment-6303?postid=128322#post128322

But I don't understand how I would Backup the DB and the Restore it this way due to not being familiar with those processes listed.  

Could someone help with a more dumbed down version of how to get my Company's data into a sandbox instance? I don't care what method so long as it works reliably.

Delete as many snapshots as possible before making a new snapshot. Skip attachments if you don't need when you make a new snapshot. 

I think from version 2024R2 on the max. limit was raised to about 5GB. Just Google it or use ChatGPT.
