data migration project from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on a data migration project from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central CU52 (version 14, Spring 2019).

In this environment, all the customizations are developed in AL, not in C/AL.Most of the documentation I’ve found covers data migration for C/AL-based solutions or hybrid (C/AL + AL) environments.

👉 My question is:

Is there any official Microsoft documentation or recommended procedure for migrating data from BC14 (CU52) coded entirely in AL to a later version ?Any guidance, documentation links, or shared experience would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks in advance!

    As far as I know, Microsoft does not provide this tool because upgrading the AL extension requires compiling it in the latest version and then manually updating the code.
    The most important Breaking Changes can be found in the document below.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.
