    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:
    Migrate on-premises data to the cloud - Business Central | Microsoft Learn
     
    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

    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).
