How to Save License in Navision Database?

Hi all,

I know most of know this but still I am posting this because I was getting queries about it.

* This post only applies to classic client.

Scenario -
While Testing a customization Developed for a customer?

The Development team have completed their task and now internal testing need to be carried. The best way to test a customization is with the customer license.

With this approach we will be able to find out the permission errors (to new objects) if any.
Issue -
The license uploaded on the server is a Partner developer license.

I know we can Change the license for our instance of Navision from Tools -> License information -> Change.

Why don't we add the license into the database so that i remain there till we have the database.

How this can be done?

While Creating Database, of if the database have been created then Navigate to File - Database - Information.

Open the integration Tab and check Boolean for Save license in database. Click Ok. System will ask you for a License file that need to be saved in the database.


What Save License in Database Does?

This setting allows you to specify that the license file is uploaded and stored in the database instead of on the server. This is useful if you are hosting several databases with separate license files on the same server.

Hope the information is useful. 

Regards,
Saurav Dhyani

Hi Readers, We have already talked about the number of steps for upgrading to Business Central on Premises from different NAV versions. After that article, I received multiple requests for an article which list down steps for Data Migration. In this article, we will discuss steps of data migration to MSDYN365BC (on-Prem) from NAV 2017. For this article, I am considering a Cronus Demo Database without any customization. For an actual upgrade project, we will have to complete object merge using compare and Merge process. After the Merge Process, the next step is data migration. Let's discuss those steps. Direct Upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (on-Prem) is from following versions - 1. NAV 2015. 2. NAV 2016. 3. NAV 2017. 4. NAV 2018.
