ReportHello,
I'm IT Manager in a Company (so I'm not NAV Center). And I have an experience for more than 15 years in NAV development.
I think I can say I have a very good skill in NAV.
When I'm hired on my current company, the had an NAV5.0 version.
So I started 'myself !) the upgrade process => 2009 on RTC => 2013 => 2018
Switching to 5.0 to 2009 RTC is a big process. Form to page, 3-tiers architecture, ...
and users take a long time to accomodate...
After 1 year, now, we are fully in 2009 RTC.
So, according to Mirosoft, the next step is to switch to 2013 R2.
I started the conversion of our object.
And (on february !!) I asked to our NAV Center to receive the upgraded licence
They say that is no more possible to simply upgrade the licence to 2013. They must ask "a special case" to Microsoft to do thaht. But, no problem, that simply take more time ...
After lot of email ... I finally receive a response today : "Sorry, it's not possible to upgrade licenses, you must directly go to dynamic Central" ...
But according to all pages I find on Microsoft, to upgrade from 2009 to Central, we must passe to 2013 and 2018
There is no direct upgrade pass.
docs.microsoft.com/.../upgrading-to-business-central-on-premises
I'm wrong about this ????
Or we must do the 3 upgrade without "staying on the version", and working only fro the upgrade on central ?
and we must do the upgrade of data in the 3 steps in a line (in a single week-end, difficult) ?
And without the possibility to stay for some month on each versions, we accumulate the possible problem.
We have lot of customization.
When I asked the license on 02/2019, they say that there is no problem...
And now, impossible ...
I know that after 31/03, it's normally more difficult, that wa announced, it's the reason I asked my license on 02/2019...
But now... what to do ...
Thx
