Breaking New Ground: The First-Ever Jump Version of Business Central.

Hi Readers,

The video talks about the first jump version of Dynamics 365 Business Central which was announced in a previous release. The jump version is a new name for an old concept where you had to take breaks in the middle of an upgrade process.

Here are some key points from the video:

• In the past, you had to upgrade from NAV 2009 to NAV 2015 and then from NAV 2015 to Business Central 14.

• Now, you can upgrade directly from any version to Business Central 23 or Business Central SaaS.

• However, this will change in the future. You will have to upgrade to Business Central 25 before upgrading to Business Central 26 or Business Central SaaS.

• This is because Microsoft is introducing a new property called "obsolete state" which will allow them to delete tables and fields that are no longer needed.

• This will improve performance and make it easier to maintain the codebase.

• ISVs and partners will need to adapt their code to the new jump version strategy.

• This will require them to clean up their code and remove any obsolete fields or tables.

• The jump version will also provide opportunities for partners to improve their extensions.

Overall, the video provides a clear and concise explanation of the jump version and its implications for Dynamics 365 Business Central users. The speaker also provides some insights into how ISVs and partners can prepare for the jump version.
