I want to upgrade CRM 2013 to Dynamics CRM V9 . do we have any way where I can upgrade directly CRM v9. 

either I have one separate machine which is having fresh CRM v9  now I want to move the data CRM 2013 to CRM v9 using CRM migration tool but failing due to schema unmatched. 

how we can achieve this.

    If you want to migrate data from your 2013 to 9.0 I would recommend using SSIS + KingsWay soft adapters for Dynamics.

    You can check following posts:

    I believe the easiest way would be to upgrade versions instead of going the path of data migration on which you're struggling.
    You should probably try to get the help of a Microsoft partner or consultants for that project.
    One other option would be to migrate to Dynamics 365 online, more on this here: https://dynamics.microsoft.com/en-us/migration-program/

    Thanks , but CRM 2013 and CRM v9 schema is different when I am trying to import the data using CRM Configuration Migration tool getting Schema Validation error due to column mismatch.

    Hi Ravi,

    If you don't upgrade from CRM 2013 to V9.0 like Andrew suggested, then you would need to migrate the data, which can be complex depending on the volume and data model. There are a number of ways and tools to migrate data, ranging from an Excel import, an C# console application, SSIS packages...

    Hello,

    You can't do direct migration. The only way is to do upgrades in sequent way:

    2013->2015

    2015->2016

    2016->2016 v8.2(D365)

    2016 v8.2(D365) -> v9.0
