By
Microsoft dynamics 365 Business Central
Customization in Business central:
1) Coding will be done in visual studio code with AL Code Extension.

Upgrade steps:
First Option
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/upgrade/upgrading-to-business-central.

Second Option
Regarding data migration, use Configuration Packages (Rapid Start), exporting data from NAV and importing into BC via XLS. In some scenarios where data to load has a very high volume, it is recommended to use different ways such as loading data using web services or APIs.
Follow below link
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/upgrade/upgrading-the-data

Regarding customizations, all must be translated/recorded into Extensions with AL. The following steps are:

1) Convert all customized .txt objects into .al objects but one condition is compulsory i.e. “take all the customized code into events/subscriber”.

Generate delta file
Compare-NAVApplicationObject -OriginalPath "C:\PageWith2Controls.txt" -ModifiedPath "C:\PageWith3Controls.txt" -ExportToNewSyntax

After that there is a command that uses TXT2AL tool that you must run in cmd.
"C:\Program Files (x86) \Microsoft Dynamics NAV\110\RoleTailored Client\txt2al.exe" --source="D:\OneDrive\source" --target="D:\OneDrive\target"

“C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central\130\RoleTailored Client\txt2al.exe" --source="D:\OneDrive\Delta" --target="D:\OneDrive\target"

Improved performance features of Business Central 17

By
  In the training I’ve done to some partners last week, when talking about performances I shared an example of an extension with 3 features that I think are not so well known but that have a significant impact on how your code performs, expecially on a SaaS environment. That extension used the following features: Partial record loading Temporary Tables QueryCategory The  Partial record  capability  is a new feature available starting from Dynamics 365 Business Central 2020 Wave 2 (v17) and I think it’s one of my top personal desiderata from years. This feature permits you to load only the needed fields of a recordset (when accessing a data source) instead of loading the entire set of fields. This is particularly useful on reports and OData pages because you can avoid to do a SELECT * (plus JOINS with all the extension’s tables) and instead doing a SELECT of only the fields you need. Now you can do something like: procedure TestPartialRecord(): Decimal ...
