Sandbox Management

A NetSuite sandbox is a safe, separate test account where you can develop and test new applications and customizations without affecting your production account. Your sandbox has the same configuration, data, and customizations as your production account.

The administrator requests a sandbox refresh when needed to ensure developers are working in an up-to-date account.

Task

More Information

Monitor sandbox and coordinate refreshes from production as required.

Refreshing Sandbox Accounts

Make sure everyone at your company knows about and is ready for the refresh from production before you request it.

NetSuite Sandbox

Refresh your sandbox only when you're ready. A refresh completely replaces the sandbox account with your production data. After your sandbox is refreshed, it can't be restored to its prior state.

Requesting a Refresh

Monitor sandbox expiry dates.

When a Sandbox Account Expires

Set up the Send Email To option on the Email Preferences page for Sandbox and Release Preview so email messages go to the correct addresses.
