There are some "automated" options for cloud BC, but I don't think these are available for on-Prem.

A workaround would be to migrate it to Cloud BC, and then copy the cloud BC to on-Prem.

but directly to on-Prem BC the migration is done via files (in BC files are imported via Configuration Packages).

Hi,

There is a bit of information out there for you to use regarding the migration process from GP to BC Saas. We do not currently have a migration path for GP to BC On Prem. If your intent is to migrate from GP to BC Saas, I would start with the following link, so you can understand the requirements:

We also have several articles to help you through the process, specifically starting with GP data review. We have some recommendations here:

Hope it helps.

Best Regards,

Judy
