The procedures in this chapter refer to the customer’s current database as a Navision<br />

Financials 2.60 database, but you can perform the same steps with earlier versions of<br />

Navision Financials and with Commerce Portal, Commerce Gateway and Navision<br />

Manufacturing.<br />

How to Use the Databases in this Chapter<br />

The procedures in this chapter will tell you to open Navision Financials databases. It is<br />

very important that you open these databases with the new Navision C/SIDE<br />

throughout this chapter.<br />

You should use copies of the databases for all of these procedures or ensure that you<br />

have a valid backup of the database before you open it with a Navision C/SIDE.<br />

To open a Navision Financials database with a Navision C/SIDE, follow this<br />

procedure:<br />

1 Open Navision and open the database that you want to work in.<br />

2 When prompted, click OK to convert the database.<br />

3 To open the Object Designer, click SHIFT+ F12.<br />

4 In the Object Designer, select all objects and press F11 to compile them.<br />

The database is now fully converted and you can continue with the procedure that you<br />

started. The next time you need to open this database with a Navision C/SIDE, you<br />

will not be asked to convert the database.<br />

Versions earlier than version 3.01 do not set global language in codeunit 1,<br />

ApplicationManagement, as Navision does. This means that when you open a<br />

Navision database, the first language that you select will be the global language for all<br />

previous version of Navision Financials that you open with that Navision C/SIDE.<br />

If you do not compile all objects after converting the database, you will get an incorrect<br />

result when you use the Translate, Export functionality.<br />

In the section called Translating the Code Base on page 17, you are asked to<br />

translate your country’s old base version into English (United States). Please note that<br />
