How to Update the Sandbox/Test Account to Live Data?

2. A new tab will open showing your Test Company/Sandbox. You can identify the difference between a LIVE account and a SANDBOX account by looking at the top-left corner of the screen where it says "***Test Company/Sandbox***" and the Test Company/Sandbox has a different color to differentiate from your real company at glance.
From the Test Account/Sandbox Home Page, Click the "Reset from your Live Account" button and the Test Company/Sandbox will copy all of your data from your Live account.
3. You'll get the message below. Click Continue to proceed.
