Change from Navision Database Native engine to SQL Server

Asallai

Hi all,

We have a large database (6GB) and we use the native Navision 2.6 database engine.
But our size is too close to the maximum of our licence limit and our plan is to change to sql server.
I'd like to know what is the bottleneck at conversion? Can the change cause any problem in this process? :-k

What is the correct SQL server version for Navision 2.6?

It will be very helpful for me, thank you :!:

Greetings,

I'm currently testing the upgrade of my native NF2.6 to sql (2.6).
At this time, no big problem.

Like writted on the white pages on cd :

You make a full test of database (except field relation)
You import and run the fob.
Make some correction on bad dates, ... (with the fob)
Make a backup, and restore it on navision sql

and all is good.

My DB is 8 GB, that take much time but ...

The only thing I find is problem with sorting code field.
You can do a search on forum for that
