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.

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"
