1.30->2.00 - anyone has the upgrade toolkit/objects

Mukker

preferred language danish - guess W1 could do the trick.

I only have seen the databases archive not the upgrade toolkit.

Thanks. I already have the "Clean" databases.
Perhaps. It is possible to import the 1.30 directly into 2.60

I don;t think so, there are a lot of changes. The upgrade tool kits are on the CD. And if you are doing Danish you will need the Danish one.

As it's on 1.30 the DB probably has many years of data and if it has any customisations there's a good chance that they can be replaced by standard enhancements added since 1.30.

IMO you may be a lot better off treating it as a foreign system and doing a reimplementation into a new, clean, fast database. Without the the accumulated cr...uft of a decade and a half of operation.

Also, I've looked at the CD images I do have (GB only not DK) The 2.60 has upgrades from 2.01 and later and the 2.01 has 2.00 ONLY, I have a few CDs from before 2.00 (not 2.00 itself though) and there's a noticeable lack of upgrade toolkits before 2.01 ... This will make things difficult as Microsoft seem to have lost all non-US versions of Navision.

PS: US version is here: https://mbs.microsoft.com/partnersource ... rchive.htm
But as David said, it probably won't help.

I think the US version can help.

He could compile the upgrade toolkit objects and remove all the US related fields and tables. At least it will give him the W1 version, which I think he was asking for.

He really needs the DK tool kit if he will do an upgrade. A lot changed in the data structure from 1.3 to 2.01, number series and inventory application entries, lots of key things that need to be done properly.

But in reality I agree that doing this many jumps it is probably going to be easier, and definitely cleaner to do a new implementation.

Hi all,
this upgrade can be done in 3 steps (My situation NF1.3 -> NAV4.3, not much changes in 130 database, slightly modified):
1) Upgrade database to NF200 (Use US upgrade toolkit 120 to 200 - works ok for 130)
2) Upgrade 200 to 201
3) Upgrade 201 to 260 ...

Hope it helps.
