The method, in five phases
- Assess: object inventory, data quality, integrations. Free, within five working days.
- Plan: what the standard covers, what is an app, what needs an extension. Scope split into parts with written acceptance criteria.
- Build and test: clean AL extensions, data validated against your live system, and your real month-end close run as a test.
- Cut over: usually a weekend, with the old system read-only as the fallback.
- Stabilise: first close supported, Power BI and AI agents switched on.
FAQ
Do we have to migrate all our history?
No. Masters, balances and open documents migrate; history is archived read-only. Migrating ten years of transactions is the most common way to inflate a quote.
Will our customisations break?
In a system with years behind it, a third to half of the custom code already exists in the Business Central standard. The inventory tells you before anyone writes code.
We already have a quote from another partner.
We will review it line by line within 48 hours — including telling you it is good.
What do licences cost?
$80 Essentials, $110 Premium, $8 Team Members per user per month. Full US breakdown.
