Upgrading to Dynamics 365 Business Central Online

  • Artikel

If you want to move your current solution to Business Central online, the path depends on your current solution. In most cases, it's a matter of migration rather than upgrade due to the nature of online services. The core scenario is to import existing data to an empty company in a Business Central online tenant. For more information, see Take prospects and customers online.

Use the following table to determine the procedures that you must complete for your migration scenario:
