Prerequisites

Run data replication

Follow these steps to replicate data to the online tenant.

  1. Search for and open the Cloud Migration Management page.

  2. On the Cloud Migration Management page, select one of the following actions:

    • Run data replication > Yes if you're migrating from Dynamics SL on-premises.
    • This step starts replicating data to the online tenant.

  3. If the data replication starts, you get a message that the cloud migration was successfully started. Select OK to continue.

  4. Monitor the progress on the Cloud Migration Management page by following entries in the Migration Log list and changes in the status fields at the top of the page.

Tip

If telemetry is enabled, view data about the success or failure of cloud migration operations like setup, data replication, and data upgrade. Learn more in Enable environment telemetry and Analyzing cloud migration trace telemetry.

Troubleshoot and fix problems

If errors occur during data replication, fix them then rerun the data replication. Learn more about some common errors at Cloud migration troubleshooting documentation for Business Central in Microsoft troubleshooting documentation.

When you're ready to run the data replication again, select Run data replication. In general, only data changed since the last replication is replicated. To learn more, go to Rerunning data replication.

Stop data replication

You can stop the data replication before it finishes. When stopped, any data that has been migrated remains in the online database.

To stop the currently running data replication, select the Abandon migration or Pause migration, enter reason, then select Finish. The process can't be stopped while in the middle of replicating a table, so the action waits until the current table has been replicated, then it stops the process.
