With Microsoft announcing the end of support for Dynamics GP, many GP customers are looking for a migration to Business Central.

However, it is difficult to find GP to BC migration services, and few partners are capable of performing it themselves and this is where the Simplanova Partnership enabled the Simply Dynamics GP to D365 BC Migration Success Story.

Simplanova ensures a structured migration process for Simply Dynamics and its client, managing the transition from Dynamics GP to Dynamics 365 Business Central with precision and expertise:

• Project Kickoff – Simply Dynamics contacts Simplanova to receive project timelines, define the scope of data migration, and provide a Statement of Work (SOW).
• Project Assignment – ​​After the SOW is signed, Simplanova assigns a dedicated Project Manager to oversee the process and outline the necessary inputs required to begin the migration.
• Test Migration & Toolkit Development – ​​The team conducts a test migration and develops a customized migration toolkit to additionally migrate all tables that are excluded from the standard Microsoft migration toolkit (e.g., Fixed Assets) and prepares detailed documentation to ensure data accuracy and a smooth transition.

Additional services might include but are not limited to:

– Development/customization services.

– Mapping from migrated custom tables to standard tables (eg. Fixed Assets)

– Help with assigning permissions.

• Production Migration – Simplanova executes the final migration on the agreed-upon dates, ensuring all data is successfully transferred to Business Central.
• Post-Migration Setup – Simply Dynamics is then asked to create users, set permissions, and set up company information currencies within the migrated database to complete the setup.
• Warranty & Support – Following delivery, Simplanova provides a 2-week warranty period after test migration and another 2 weeks after production migration, offering full support for the upgraded solution at no additional cost.

During the migration, a localisation issue arose, but it was identified as a Microsoft-related issue according to localisation limitations. Simplanova collaborated with Microsoft to resolve the issue efficiently by building the Microsoft GP migration app to a custom range.
