As far as I know, Dynamics and Navision run on SQL Server, so where do you get the migration idea from?

Restore the backup on the new SQL Server using SSMS. Open Dynamics NAV Administration Tool and update the Database Server barrierstocommunication and Database Name fields to point to the new SQL Server. Restart the NAV service instance and test to ensure everything works correctly.

This ensures smooth data transition and maintains application functionality.

Thank you for your reaching out and welcome to Microsoft Q&A!
As Erland says, Dynamics and Navision run on SQL Server. Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a suite of intelligent business applications that help organizations manage and streamline their processes, enhance customer engagement, and make data-driven decisions. It combines ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) and CRM (Customer Relationship Management) capabilities into one cloud-based platform. The individual applications (like Business Central) are running on a database.
So, it makes no sense to say: "How to migrate Microsoft dynamics NAV 2018 to SQL server" These are different layers where no migration process is possible.
Feel free to share your issue here if you have any concerns!
Best regards,
Lucy Chen

Thank you for your kindly feedback!
From this article, we can get the information:
*You can use the Export Data-tier Application feature in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to download your Azure SQL Database to a .bacpac file which can then be restored into an on-premise SQL Server instance with the Import Data-tier Application feature of SSMS. Once you have the database in an on-premise instance you can convert it using the Dynamics NAV development environment in the usual way. After that you can re-deploy the Dynamics NAV database to Azure SQL Database again.
Hope this can help you well!
Regards,
Lucy Chen
