Hi guys,

I used the task that allows you to import a comany to navision and its taking very long. Would it be possible to cancel it without causing damage to the database, if so , how?

Update: It crashed giving the typical /another user.../ and it seems nothing was affected. Anyway, is there a more intuitive way to transfer data between databases?

Thanks,

I have the same question (0)

Hi, have you tried the following Windows PowerShell Cmdlets.

Hope this can give you some hints.

Thanks.
