Good morning
I have a database that I would like to upgrade from NAV 5 to NAV2013, currently the collaction is 'latin general', without unicode support (it's an very old database)
A brief should enable a communication channel e-commerce platform that gives orders in Navision e-commerce, these orders using the Traditional Chinese language with their own characters (ideograms etc.).
What can I do to correctly handle these characters in Nav ? (now I can not see them in NAV)?
1) Convert the db by switching to unicode (there might be potential problems of space, performance problems etc.).
2) Leave the db as it is and create sql function (or stored procedures) or use. NET to handle the character mapping (Nav then enter the converts from ideograms)
3) Create a new unicode db and execute a data migration
There are other possibilities or advice on this subject?
I would like to implement the best solution
Thanks for support
