Trying to install demodata on new site

Hi,

I create a new site with:
bench new-site site1-demo.local

Then installed erpnext app:
bench --site site1-demo.local install-app erpnext

Then tried to install demo data with:
bench --site site1-demo.local execute erpnext.demo.demo.make

Seems some demodata has managed to get installed, but not complete… ie. ledger is empty and some other parts empty too.

What can I do to install demodata correctly?

Thanks

But getting this traceback:

Maybe the way to test and search for examples of a working company is is using the ERPNext online site?

Have you tried it? I havent yet…

Anyway, seems some data gets installed… same on your failed demodata install?

As fas as my knowledge the demo is not supported anymore.

You can try upload demo data yourself.

Hope this helps.

Thanks it points me to somewhere! so… if I can upload the demodata myself? where can I get it? :face_with_monocle:

Thanks,

There is an Import data menu you can choose the DocType and can be export as well as import.

Let’s give it a try.

Mmm, I might not be explaining right.

I know the option “import data”, I have imported i.e. providers time ago. But I dont need to import my data. I would like to import a complete set of “demodata” with chart of accounts, sales, purchases, manufacture, etc etc… so it will be easy to understand how ERPnext works.

Do I explain right? we need to have a working site/company with demodata to show or learn from it. That why we tried to run bench --site site1-demo.local execute erpnext.demo.demo.make, that will just populate data in a demo company with monetary movements, configurations, taxes, purchases, etc… already correctly done.

Thats the idea :expressionless:

So… there no way to add demodata? (or its just not useful for the most common users) any idea how to get it?

Thanks :innocent:

I’m getting same error when trying to install demo data.

Thanks

Anyway… after I came to that error, some data managed to get in the database, at least on mine install, i.e. providers, taxes templates, addresses, cost centers have data… but no sales/purchases or balance sheets with data… what about yours?

I would like to see this demo data complete to understand better the relations of each documents in a working company, i.e. purchases and its taxes shown on a report or CoA with values…

Agreed. This may help for ideas insight etc 'bench run-tests' to make local instance like demo.erpnext.com?
