Migration from AX 2012 R2 to NAV

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello,

I am already aware of the differences between the 2 products (AX vs. NAV) . Has anyone migrated from AX 2012 R2 to NAV ? Just wondering what would be involved in the  backend (ie: databases ,tables, customizations) to move from AX database and model store to NAV. I'm not familar with with the NAV backend other than it  primarily runs on .NET architecture running atop a SQL database . Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

    Hi,

    The application features and data models are completely different. You have to do a fit/gap analysis to see what customizations are obsolete, still required or even should be added. Data migration mapping should be done manually. There is no documentation, unless indeed someone did this before and kept all documentation and is willing to share it.
