Deleting companies within Business Central is no longer a scary task. With the 2020 release wave 1 version 16.0 of Business Central, Microsoft made deleting a company even harder than it was before. Prior to version 16.0 when you deleted a company you were only asked once if you wanted to delete the company and once you said yes there was no going back. Now you have three prompts that you need to click yes on to delete the company. I'm sure Microsoft had many requests on how to restore an accidently deleted company which prompted for this change. If you do by chance delete a company on accident then Microsoft can restore using a point in time restore. So typically you find out when the company was deleted and they can restore up to 5 minutes before it was deleted, for example.

Review the General Ledger Entries and you see only entry posted was the 04/30. Written by: Kristen Hosman, Microsoft MVP
Disclaimer provided by Microsoft The checklist is designed to assist customers in onboarding companies to Business Central and assist Partners in the selling process by highlighting features to explore from the checklist. Microsoft relies on partners to bring the relevant checklist items for a given customer if they think the default ones will not suffice, which in most cases they will certainly not. The very first default checklist item for Business Manager in non-evaluation companies is the "Company details" task, whose purpose is to open a wizard and guide users through/check if their company name is correct.
