    You would need anyway to convert the database, and then you can upload the objects from the database you had already upgraded (if you had not modified separately prod database apart from test database).

    If you already upgraded the database then you can take the object from that database provided that no customization has been carried out the DB which you are going to convert or upgrade l.

    All the best

    Hi

    If you want to upgrade from NAV 2013 to NAV 2016 , you have to do the below.

    Upgrade the code (Application Merge to 2016), convert the database to 2016 and Data upgrade, for the detailed steps refer the below.
