yes I agree. Not having a private environment means we cannot test withour existing dataset. This is real live data of real people. We cant have that in a shared environment for others to see and read.
This makes the sandbox really only good for testing the most simplistic scenarios not more complex scenarios based on data already existing
Anyway, I think the solution I am going to have to use is to keep a networked myob file just for this purpose so that testing our software will write to a networked myob file that has been restored from a online backup
Cant imagine there ar eany technical chalanges to providing a private myob file (it could even be deleted automatically if no activity detected in 30 days)
Even allowing us to upload a copy of another file to use for testing and then delete it after a peiod of time would be hugely useful. I can only imagine it is done to save resources/money. I can understand this but I think it is pretty poor
