Hi,
A lot of upgrade projects go through our company and sometimes we found interesting technical things, tricks, bugs which stops normal data-migration process. Depending on database size developers spends a lot of time to find solution. And finally this process can take a lot of time for investigation.

Some things I will put here, maybe it helps somebody.

Posted Assembly Line is empty after migration from 2009 to 2015 NA.
The problem was in function order in standard Upgrade601800.US.fob.

UpdateAsm function sould be placed after UpdateTempItemLedgerEntry.

UpdateTempItemLedgerEntry function fills Order No. and Order Type fields in Item Ledged Entry table which required in UpdateAsm;

Strange standard bug in NAV 2009 - 2017.

Create object Codeunit with any ID and name '1' (one digit without quotes).

If you try to import any object via txt file which contains line for example:

RunObject=Codeunit 1003

you will have an error:

You cannot enter ' RunObject=Codeunit 1003;' in ObjectID.

If you rename codeunit to any name - import works well.
