Dynamics GP to Business Central, on your timeline.
Microsoft ends product support, tax and regulatory updates for Dynamics GP on December 31, 2029, and security patches on April 30, 2031. Business Central is Microsoft's path forward for GP companies. Prismware plans the move around your fiscal year so the cutover lands on a clean period end.

Why GP companies move now.
Payroll and tax. GP payroll and tax tables stop receiving updates after 2029, which puts year-end compliance at risk first.
Partner capacity. Every GP company moves in the same window. Projects started early get the experienced consultants and the cutover date they want.
Servers and SQL. Business Central runs in Microsoft's cloud, retiring the GP server, SQL licensing and the upgrade cycle that came with them.
How the move runs.
Microsoft provides a migration path from GP to Business Central for master data, open balances and historical transactions. Prismware maps your GP modules and third-party add-ons to Business Central features and extensions, decides what history comes over, and replaces custom reports with live Excel and Power BI reporting.
Your team trains on its own migrated data before go-live, and Prismware supports the first close in Business Central.
Dynamics GP retirement questions.
Can we keep running GP after support ends?
Perpetual licenses keep running, but without tax updates after 2029 and without security patches after April 2031. GP subscription users lose access once subscriptions stop renewing.
Does our GP history come over?
Yes. Customers, vendors, items, chart of accounts, open balances and selected history migrate from GP to Business Central.
What does Business Central cost for a GP customer?
Business Central Essentials is $80 per user per month and Premium is $110, paid yearly. Microsoft has offered transition pricing for eligible GP customers, and Prismware confirms what applies to your account.
What happens to our GP add-ons and customizations?
Most are replaced by Business Central standard features or AppSource extensions. Prismware maps each one during scoping.
