Hi, this is exactly the NAV → Business Central modernization work I’ve handled. I’m experienced across NAV 2009/2013/2015/2018 and BC On-Prem/SaaS, including C/AL-to-AL conversion, extension architecture, event publishers/subscribers, schema synchronization, upgrade codeunits and data migration. I can handle the full technical path: assessment → upgrade strategy → code conversion/refactoring → tables/pages/codeunits → RDLC/Word reports → barcode/QR → testing and deployment. I’ll specifically avoid carrying legacy overlayering into BC. For senior upgrade work, I’d suggest ₹2,000–₹3,000/hr rather than ₹750–₹1,250. Initial assessment would take 3–5 business days, followed by phased migration. Share the current NAV version/customization inventory and I can outline the upgrade path.

Based on your requirements, the migration from NAV 2009/2013/2015/2018 to Dynamics 365 Business Central (On-Prem/SaaS) will be handled in a structured manner across technical, application, and data layers. Legacy C/AL code will be converted to AL extensions, eliminating overlayering in favor of a publisher/subscriber and event-driven architecture. Approach: Assessment of current NAV → Microsoft-supported upgrade path → Migration of tables, pages, reports, and codeunits → AL refactoring → Schema sync & upgrade codeunits → Data migration → Modernization of RDLC/Word reports → Barcode/QR integration → On-Prem/SaaS validation. Regression testing, data integrity checks, and deployment documentation will be maintained at every stage. 1. What are the source NAV versions and database sizes? 2. How many custom objects/extensions and third-party integrations are involved? 3. What is the target BC version and deployment environment (On-Prem/SaaS)? 4. Are the existing C/AL source code and reports available? I will deliver a production-ready Business Central environment featuring a clean, maintainable AL architecture and a controlled migration process.

<==== Hi there ====> The core of this project is upgrading legacy Dynamics NAV environments to Business Central while preserving business logic, migrating data safely, and converting C/AL customizations into maintainable AL extensions. I’ve worked on enterprise application migrations where the main challenge was modernizing legacy custom logic without breaking critical workflows or creating upgrade debt. In those projects, I used staged migration plans, schema validation, refactoring, automated checks, and clear separation between standard platform behavior and custom extensions. For your NAV/Business Central upgrade, I’d apply the same approach across technical upgrades, C/AL-to-AL conversion, event-based refactoring, table/page/report migration, upgrade codeunits, schema synchronization, data migration, and RDLC/Word report modernization. Budget : $12/hour Timeline : Ongoing / based on NAV version and customization scope I’d be happy to discuss the current NAV version, database size, customization volume, target Business Central version, and whether the destination is On-Prem or SaaS. Best regards, Dejan

Hello, I can support the full NAV-to-Business Central upgrade, including application refactoring, data migration, reports and production cutover. My skills cover Dynamics NAV, C/AL, AL extensions, event-driven development, schema synchronization and RDLC/Word reporting. I’ll first inventory the exact NAV build, custom objects, integrations, companies and target deployment, then select the supported Microsoft upgrade route. Older releases need intermediate steps, so the path must be confirmed before migration. I’ll convert custom tables, pages, reports and codeunits into AL extensions, replacing base-code modifications with publishers/subscribers and reviewing dependencies for SaaS compatibility where required. For the data upgrade, I’ll work on a restored test environment, implement upgrade codeunits and verify record counts, balances and key business workflows. Reports will be checked for layout, barcode/QR output and printing behaviour. Before go-live, I’ll complete a rehearsal migration, user acceptance testing and a documented cutover/rollback plan. Handover includes extension source, migration scripts and upgrade notes. For one moderately customized environment, I’d provisionally allow 3–5 weeks; the object inventory and target version will determine the final schedule. Send the current NAV version/build, customization list and preferred on-premises or SaaS target, and I’ll map the upgrade milestones.

Hi, We can support the modernization of your Microsoft Dynamics NAV environment toward Dynamics 365 Business Central, covering technical, application and data migration requirements. The work can include converting C/AL customizations into AL extensions, refactoring legacy code into event-driven patterns using publishers and subscribers, migrating customized tables, pages, reports and codeunits, and handling schema synchronization and upgrade codeunits. We can also address RDLC and Word report modernization, including barcode and QR requirements, while keeping the solution structured for On-Prem or SaaS deployment. A few questions: 1. Which NAV versions are currently in scope: 2009, 2013, 2015, 2018, or multiple versions? 2. Are you targeting Business Central On-Prem, SaaS, or both? 3. Approximately how many custom tables, pages, reports and codeunits need to be converted? 4. Do you have the existing C/AL source code and a database backup available for assessment? 5. Are there third-party NAV add-ons or integrations that must be retained after migration? 6. Do the existing reports require exact layout replication, or can they be redesigned for Business Central? Could you also share the current NAV version and a high-level customization inventory so we can assess the migration path accurately? Note: The final cost may vary based on the confirmed scope. Best Regards, Agnidipa Team Qloron
