A number of fields that are related to product groups are no longer in use, because the feature was replaced by item categories in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2017. The fields are marked as ObsoleteState = Pending;.
 
How to convert the below structure from Nav to Latest BC Version?

    Have you tried using the Configuration Package to export the records first, then organize them outside the system and then import them into the new table?

    If you need to do this in customization, I hope the following information can also give you some help.
