Upgrading used to take a considerable amount of time and effort. With the release of Powershell upgrade, it doesn't have to be so. Companies that already use Microsoft Dynamics NAV will want to get to, at least, Dynamics NAV 2013, so upgrading in the future can be easier. To do so, they have to go through an upgrade process to get their current implementation to the latest version. In this chapter, we covered upgrading to NAV 2016 by using Powershell to upgrade from NAV 2013. Even upgrading to Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 is only supported from Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009. We also explained how to upgrade from the previous versions of the application.

In the next chapter, we will be talking about developing in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2016.
