Hello all,
Could you please confirm if we can migrate partial data from NAV to Business Central during a version upgrade.
For example , if customer has 10 years of data , can we only migrate 2 years of data in Business Central from NAV using upgrade toolkit or any other tool.
Thanks.

Hi, As far as I know, the standard doesn't have this functionality.
I also recommend that you sync all data first.

And, Data cleanup tasks page (Data Administration page)

Hope this helps as well.
Thanks.

I think my approach would be to migrate all data and then start to delete / compress data once they are all migrated.
Then it is easier to get a clear view of what data you want to keep to get a good use of your new Business Central implementation.
With that approach you will also see how much storage is needed to keep all your data and you can compare the cost of that to the cost of an alternative archive storage.
Hi Anjana,
In general, this is not a technical issue but rather business/finance issue. Some data needs to be kept requested by authorities.
If you want to transfer the data selectively, then I guess the best and most flexible tool is SQL Server Management Studio. But it should be programed to make all these selections.
Hope it helps.
