    Hi,
     
    As mentioned, the following steps are necessary to ensure a smooth data migration.  You can review the steps below in more detail .
    • You should have a Business Central Cloud tenant. 
    • User must have been a "Super" use in BC /admin and must have at least one user setup in the target company.
    • Ensure you meet system requirements, users, and permissions are met and setup.
    Permissions & Software requirements
    • Ensure you have access to the SQL server management server (SSMS).
    • The on-premises solution must use SQL Server 2016 or a later version, and the database must have compatibility level 130 or higher. The on-premises solution must also be one of the supported versions.
    • Update statistics and reorganize indexes on all tables on the source database. This will ensure that the migration runs as fast as possible.
    Best Regards,
    Judy
