Overview
This section lists tables that Business Central has deprecated. It has two pages. The general page maps old table names to new ones, so developers know which code must be rewritten. It covers changes from 2020 release wave 1 and later, including 2021 release wave 2, and refers to the ObsoleteState values Pending and Removed.
The second page is specific to the India version in 2021 release wave 2. It gives the table numbers and names of deprecated tables. It notes that manual data migration may be needed if custom fields were added to those tables.
Start with the general Deprecated Tables page to find the replacement for a table your code uses. If you work with the India localization, then check the India list to see whether your customizations are affected.
