How we engage · Four-phase methodology

Planning · code-data upgrade · testing · training.

Every Novasoft upgrade or migration runs through the same four phases. The phase boundaries are gates — you do not move forward until the previous phase signs off.

  1. 01Phase 1 · Planning

    Discovery & planning

    Source-system inventory (NAV/GP/AX/QuickBooks objects, custom code, integrations). Target-environment design (BC SaaS vs on-prem, Azure tenant, Entra ID structure). Cut-over plan and rollback design. Effort estimate and pricing.

  2. 02Phase 2 · Code-data upgrade

    Code-data upgrade

    Custom objects ported to the modern Microsoft extension model (BC AL for Business Central, D365 LCS extensions for F&SCM). Master data, opening balances and transactional history migrated with reconciliation reports. Integration endpoints re-built or migrated to Power Platform.

  3. 03Phase 3 · Testing

    UAT & defect cycle

    User Acceptance Testing on a sandbox tenant against documented business scenarios. Defect logging and triage. Performance testing. Security review. Production cut-over checklist signed off.

  4. Phase 4 · Training

    Training & go-live

    Key-user training first, then role-based end-user training. Production cut-over with on-site Novasoft team. Hypercare period for early-life support. Hand-over to NovaCare 360° managed support.

As there are lots of things to consider while upgrading or migrating Dynamics 365 business applications, we recommend partnering with a Microsoft Cloud Service Provider or Dynamics 365 consultants. Novasoft is both — a Microsoft Solutions Partner — Business Applications and an authorised CSP. For any questions on upgrade and migration of Microsoft Business Applications, you can always talk with our consultants.

FAQ · Upgrade & migration questions

Seven honest answers about migrating to Dynamics 365.

How do I migrate from Dynamics NAV to Business Central?

Novasoft delivers Dynamics NAV to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central migrations in four phases: planning (object inventory, data quality, custom code assessment), code-data upgrade (object-by-object port to BC AL extension model, master data and transaction data migration with reconciliation), testing (UAT against business scenarios) and training (key users + role-based end-user training). Typical NAV-to-BC project runs 3 to 8 months.

How do I migrate from Dynamics GP to Business Central?

Dynamics GP to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is one of the five migration paths Novasoft delivers. The approach mirrors the NAV path but with GP-specific data extracts (SOP, POP, Project Accounting, Manufacturing) mapped to BC structures, with chart-of-accounts re-modelling against BC dimensions. We also cover GP to Dynamics 365 Finance + Supply Chain Management where tier-1 scale applies.

How do I migrate from Dynamics AX to Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain?

Dynamics AX to D365 Finance and Supply Chain Management is the tier-1 enterprise path. Novasoft assesses AX customisations (X++ code, EP, AOT objects), maps them to the D365 F&SCM extension model, and runs the LCS migration tooling for data. Similar project structure to NAV → BC but at enterprise complexity and typically multi-quarter timeline.

Can Novasoft migrate from QuickBooks to Business Central?

Yes. QuickBooks to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is a common path for growing mid-market companies. Chart-of-accounts redesign, customer / vendor / item master data migration, opening-balance journal preparation and historical-data archival. Typical QuickBooks → BC engagement runs 2 to 4 months.

What does on-premise to cloud migration include?

For on-premise Microsoft customers, Novasoft migrates the existing Dynamics, SQL Server, file shares and Active Directory workload to Microsoft Azure. Improves IT productivity by removing on-premise infrastructure overhead. Includes deeper integration to the Office 365 application, BI, analytics and Azure cloud platform capabilities.

What is the methodology Novasoft uses?

Collaborative approach to ensure professional project planning and execution. Multiple licensing model — pay only for what you need. Experienced team walks through with you during the entire project life cycle. Four phases: planning, code-data upgrade, testing, training.

Should we partner with a Microsoft Cloud Service Provider for the migration?

As there are lots of things to consider while upgrading or migrating Dynamics 365 business applications, we recommend partnering with a Microsoft Cloud Service Provider or Dynamics 365 consultants. Novasoft is both — a Microsoft Solutions Partner — Business Applications and an authorised CSP.
