upgrade NAV 2018 to Business Central 14

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 27

When upgrading NAV 2018 database to BC14 all objects except tables are deleted and the developer license is imported.

When we try to convert the data base we get an error "Field number 36 is not defined in the object metadata table".

What is the reason for this error and how can we avoid it and successfully convert the database?

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    It is important that before converting database all of your objects in old Database should be in compiled form and your tables schema is also synchronized.

    Compiling and synchronizing schema in old database can solve this problem. Hopefully
