License error when I attempt to migrate from on prem GP to Business Central

Posted on by 181

Hi,

I'm trying to migrate my on prem GP to Business Central. I've used BC's Cloud Migration Setup to setup the task and then on Cloud Migration Management, clicked "Run Migration Now". The following appears:

The text of the error is:

"Company creation failed with error Your license does not grant you the following permissions on TableData Company: Insert.

To view details about your permissions, see the Effective Permissions page. To report a problem, refer to the following server session ID: '55344'.. Please fix this and re-run the Cloud Migration Setup wizard."

I was wondering if there's a license I have to obtain or permissions I have to assign? I'm already a SUPER user in the Business Central I'm logging onto.

Sincerely,

Jason

    Hi,

    I have the SUPER admin access. I have a "Dynamics 365 Business Central for IWs" license. I think this is the DEV one. Another developer tried to help me out by installing a trial license, but the same error results.

    Would I need to purchase a license for Business Central? I checked with my IT team and they mentioned my company currently doesn't have a BC license (either Essentials, Premium or Team Members).

    Hello,

    What permissions does this user have? And are you running with a DEV license?

    Thank you.
