We current have Nav 2013 running in Domain abc, we have created a new domain xyz.local, the AD User accounts are to be migrated from abc to xyz.local, Is it possible to migrate the users across in Nav or do we have to create new users for the new domain and what are the steps required to migrate the AD user accounts in Nav (SQL) bearing in mind that the old domain abc is to be decommissioned and we do not want to lose any security tracking/audit of transactions already in Nav when this is done.

    In theory you could change the ssid in sql. Haven't tried it.

    The accounts in NAV are linked to the SSID, so unless you have a way of keeping the same ID's you have to recreate the users in NAV
    Don't just take my word for it, test it yourself

    Yes I was looking in the dbo.user table and was looking at the possibility of changing the User Name and Windows Security ID fields from the current Domain\user and SSID to the NEW Domain\User and NEWSSID
