Migrating from Dynamics GP to Dynamics 365 Business Central?

Welcome to the GP to BC Migration Station!

  • This is the central landing page for posting references and resources which support the GP to BC Migration process. Bookmark this one!

  • I have discussed my preferred approach to migrating to BC in various Mindset Blog posts. To me, it is all about the DATA and the BEST PRACTICES for doing it once, and doing it right.

  • This page will continue to evolve, and I will post about updates in the Mindset Blog.

Author’s note and Disclaimer:

  • Mapping ERP systems is a complex and subjective task for any one person.

  • Significant differences between GP and BC will require you to learn more deeply about the product to perform a successful implementation.

  • There is more than one way to map particular fields, but I think you’ll get a lot out of the references provided.

  • I am not infallible, so let me know if you spot an issue I need to update. I don’t want to present anything factually incorrect here, however how you map your data in real life is up to you.

  • I needed to know the differences that really matter between the master records in both Dynamics GP and Business Central. I hope you gain value from my analysis and notes.

  • As I do more BC implementations, and if / when BC changes, I’ll keep this up to date, and make adjustments and add additional notes where needed. I’ll also work on filling in any holes to make this complete because these are MY personal reference pages too.

  • Some of the tables on the individual pages probably won’t render very well on some mobile devices, but try tipping it horizontally instead!
