Hey guys,

If an end-user has solution developer license for NAV, and they want to move to Business Central in the cloud, are they able to continue developing extensions for BC and how would they do this / do they need any special license?

I have the same question (0)

    You don't need any special license for BC Development, you can check the below link how to get started with extension development

    In BC Saas, the object range [50.000..99.999] is free. That means you can use the development environment, VSCode, to create apps (extensions) that can create new objects, like: tables, pages, reports, codeunits, xmlports, queries, profiles, enums,...

    Via table-extension and page-extension objects you can make, limited, modifications to existing tables and pages, from the base app.

    You can not modify reports, only create new report objects, but in one of the next releases there will be a new object type: report extension, that will allow you to make, limited, modifications to report datasets.
