Move from NAV to Business Central without the risk.
Microsoft's extended support for Dynamics NAV is ending. We've migrated hundreds of companies with zero data loss, minimal disruption, and a timeline measured in weeks — not months.

What we do
What a NAV → Business Central migration involves
A migration is more than a version bump. It's an honest readiness check, a clean data move, a plan for every customization and add-on, and a cutover your business barely feels.
Assessment & Readiness
We inventory your NAV version, customizations, add-ons, and integrations to build a clear, realistic migration path.
Data Migration
Full historical data, open documents, and balances moved with multiple trial runs and automated reconciliation.
Customization Conversion
Every customization categorized by path: standard BC, modern extension, or rewrite — nothing carried blindly forward.
ISV Add-on Replacement
Legacy add-ons mapped to modern AppSource equivalents or native Business Central functionality.
Testing & Validation
End-to-end process testing and reconciliation so the new system matches the old one before you rely on it.
Parallel Running
Run old and new side by side through a cycle so you cut over with total confidence and a rollback path.

From legacy to cloud — with zero data loss
- Full historical data preservation — not just open balances
- Multiple trial migrations before the real cutover
- Automated reconciliation so the numbers provably tie out
- A documented rollback plan for total peace of mind
Challenges & solutions
The hard parts — and how we handle them
Fear of data loss — years of financial history and open transactions feel too risky to move.
Multiple trial migrations with automated reconciliation and a zero data loss guarantee. We prove the numbers before cutover.
Custom code that won't migrate — undocumented modifications nobody fully understands anymore.
We inventory every customization and categorize each by path: native BC, modern extension, or deliberate rewrite.
Business disruption during cutover — the fear of downtime during a critical operating window.
Parallel running, cutovers planned around quiet periods, and a tested rollback plan if anything looks wrong.
Finding a partner who still knows NAV — most firms have moved on and can't speak the old language.
15+ years of NAV expertise spanning Navision 3.x through Dynamics NAV 2018. We know exactly what you're migrating from.
Why implementations fail
The costliest mistakes in a NAV or GP migration
Most migration pain isn't technical — it's strategic. These are the missteps that turn a routine move into months of unexplained variances and lost trust, and the ones we plan around from day one.
Carrying every legacy customization forward line-by-line
Years of NAV or GP modifications feel like investments worth preserving. In reality, many are undocumented technical debt. Lifting them into Business Central drags the exact complexity you're trying to escape into your new system — raising cost, support burden, and upgrade risk.
Treating data migration as a bulk copy
Migration is a controlled finance transition, not a copy job. If opening balances don't reconcile, subledgers don't tie out, and dimensions behave differently, your team inherits unexplained variances, delayed closes, and eroding confidence in the new system.
Choosing a partner who no longer speaks NAV
Most firms have moved on from the legacy Dynamics world and can't read the system you're leaving. Without deep NAV and GP knowledge, customizations get misjudged, history gets mishandled, and the migration path is built on guesswork.
How Qixas is different
Designed for Predictability
Every step engineered to reduce risk, protect data, and maintain business continuity.
Customization rationalization, not lift-and-shift
We audit every legacy modification against standard Business Central. Most clients eliminate 40–60% of old customizations — lowering cost, simplifying upgrades, and reducing support risk.
Finance-led migration with reconciliation gates
Multiple trial runs with automated reconciliation ensure opening balances, subledgers, and dimensions provably tie out before anyone depends on the new system.
Parallel running with a real rollback path
We run old and new side by side through an operating cycle and plan cutover around your quiet periods, with a documented rollback plan if anything looks wrong.
Decades of genuine NAV and GP expertise
From Navision 3.x through Dynamics NAV 2018 and GP, we know exactly what you're migrating from — so nothing is misjudged and nothing is carried blindly forward.
