Wholesale & distribution practiceMicrosoft's cloud-upgrade tool covers the technical lift — chart of accounts, customer and vendor masters, items, open transactions, historical balances. What it does not cover is the work that actually decides whether the upgrade lands cleanly: dimension redesign, posting group hygiene, role permission re-modelling, custom C/AL → AL extension porting and the AppSource swap for third-party add-ons that have BC-native equivalents.
Novasoft has run live migrations from NAV 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, Dynamics GP and Dynamics SL — including hybrid setups where part of the estate has to keep running on-premises until the next financial year-end. See the Microsoft Learn upgrade documentation and our upgrade and migration practice for the broader playbook.

Get dimensions right at design time and the rest of the close, the Power BI reports and Copilot's answers all line up. Get them wrong and no module in the world will save the month-end.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is Microsoft’s all-in-one cloud business management application — covering financials, sales, service, projects, supply chain, manufacturing and operations on a single SaaS tenant. It’s the successor to Dynamics NAV / Navision and the recommended ERP for small- and mid-sized businesses on the Microsoft cloud. Novasoft has been implementing Business Central since launch with 100+ live customer tenants.
Business Central is designed for SMBs and the mid-market — typically 10 to 1,000 users. It scales from single-entity startups all the way to multi-entity, multi-currency, multi-country groups. For enterprise customers above this band, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations is the better fit. Novasoft delivers both — talk to us about which platform suits your size and complexity.
Novasoft delivers Business Central in four stages — Assessment, Design, Implementation and Go-Live — typically 8–14 weeks for a single-entity SMB rollout, 14–24 weeks for multi-entity or multi-country, and 6+ months for complex manufacturing or distribution. Fixed-price for standard SMB rollouts. Talk to our consulting team for an assessment.
