What is the Size Required to Create 2nd Store

Hello:

We are utilizing Sage 50 Quantum.  I need to create a 2nd store that will be about the same size as my current store. 

The Data File Stats for my current store has a Grand Total of 771 MB.  In my Windows C Drive, my Sage folder is 79.2 GB.

If I create a 2nd store the same size as my current store size will I only need about 771 MB of disc space? 

Thanks, in advance, for your help with this important matter.

  • Data Size is variable depending upon the number of transactions and lists that are contained within that company. Just because one company is a certain size doesn't mean that your next company will be the same. https://pcosupport.com, 800-780-0700 / 954-961-0600

    But, as I noted, my 2nd company will be the same size. At least initially, it will have the same customers, same vendors and same items, etc..  Obviously, transactions such as sales will increase over time.  How about if I ask my question a different way?  If I duplicate my current company to create a 2nd company will it be the same size of 771 mb? 

  • Hi, 

    When viewing the size of the company directory from the File Explorer for Windows, the folder size may also include any backups you've made through the years of using Sage 50 Accounting. Refer to the knowledgebase article How to find the size of a company
