Hello everyone,
I am working on NAV 2017 to BC 14 migration and following the documentation.. while converting NAV extensions to BC extensions, I have exported the NAV object in .fob format but I am unable to convert it to .al as there is no FOB to AL converter. I saw a Txt2AL convertor and I can export NAV objects as .txt but I am facing permission issues while doing so. I tried to resolve permission issues but didn't work out. So can someone tell me how can I convert .fob objects to .al? Or is there any way to convert .fob to .txt? Thank you.

    Hi, this is also mentioned in MS Docs, and this upgrade process requires a development license.
     
     
    Hope this helps as well.
    Thanks.
