Licensing a Dataverse environment for external users
Looking for some advice and opinions please. This is for a standalone Dataverse environment. Not Dynamics 365, or Power Apps, or Power Pages. The question is about using a Dataverse environment with the native Dataverse web APIs, where a portal is developed (not Power Pages) that allows the external users to interface (read/write) data. My opinion is that because this is not Dynamics 365 and Power Pages are not being utilised to facilitate the access then there is no requirement for user (D365, Power App, or Power Pages capacity) licensing. I would still need Dataverse capacity licenses, but that is all. Appreciate any thought and insights.

Hi, I'm unable to login to https://dynamicspartners.transform.microsoft.com/. Nothing happens when I try to press the login button on the upper right corner. Result has been the same with three different browsers (Firefox, Chrome & Edge) and with two different PCs. Our IT says that I have the same rights than my predecessor who used to handle MS incentive cases. I am unable to for example download Proof of Execution documentation f.e: https://dynamicspartners.transform.microsoft.com/download/protected?assetname=protectedassets%2FPartner%20Activities%20-%20Business%20Value%20Assessment%20-%20POE%20Template.pptx&protected=1 Nothing happens when I open that link. What rights should I have to be able to login to https://dynamicspartners.transform.microsoft.com/? Any ideas that what could be causing this? -OssiSolvedossikulmalaSep 09, 2025Copper Contributor694Views0likes12CommentsAnyone have the information on Business Central pricing?
We were expecting to find the new local pricing of D365BC in the CSP preview price list of October, 2025, but there was no BC SKUs in the list. I searched for the information if the price change was postponed or cancelled but can't find any. What I can find is only the blog and the PartnerDeck/FAQ in PartnerHub announced in May, and no news since then. The local CSP support team even did not know about the price change of D365BC. Since we have several customers whose renewals are on October 1, we need to work on quotations asap. This is why, please allow me to submit this post while I am waiting for update from our PDM. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-365/blog/business-leader/2025/05/06/new-microsoft-dynamics-365-business-central-pricing-effective-october-2025/SolvedYuko_MizunoSep 09, 2025Brass Contributor155Views1like10CommentsSome queries on Power Apps licensing
Can anyone help ?me for the following questions about Power Apps? We don't have an appropriate contact of Microsoft for this kind of questions. 1. Is it possible to consolidate users executing Power Apps on each digital signage into a single user? Or is there a limit to the number of concurrent connections? 2. All the users who only refer to digital signage are required to have a license for Dataverse? 3. Is it allowed to share one account between the users who execute Apps? Can users of the app share a single account? 4. Do you know any case studies that using campus apps projected on digital signage?SolvedYuko_MizunoSep 08, 2025Brass Contributor146Views1like5CommentsCopilot inclusion in Partner Launch benefits
Looking at https://partner.microsoft.com/en-us/partnership/partner-benefits-packages-benefits#tab-1 it says that Partner Launch benefits include "Microsoft 365 Business Premium - includes Copilot". I took this to mean I didn't need to buy Copilot separately to work in 365 Apps like Word. However, on trying to use it this way, it seems that the Copilot referred to here is just Copilot chat with no integration with Word, SharePoint, etc. which is pretty much available for free anyway. I raised a ticket with Partner Support (2507150010000100) and they said that Copilot functionality within 365 apps is not included. Even Copilot chat itself gives confused answers. When I ask it "Explain the Copilot inclusions (if any) in Microsoft Partner Launch. Does it include Copilot to generate content in Microsoft Word?" It says: Yes, the Microsoft Partner Launch includes Copilot capabilities, and Copilot is available for generating content in Microsoft Word. Here’s a breakdown of the key inclusions: ✅ Copilot in Microsoft Word Microsoft Copilot is now integrated into Word for both consumer and commercial users. It can: Generate polished documents from prompts (e.g., recipes, reports, letters). Assist with rewriting, summarizing, and formatting. Help brainstorm and structure content based on user input I suggest that Microsoft clarifies what "Microsoft 365 ... includes Copilot" means on pages like the linked one above to avoid others being confused like me (and Copilot chat!)

I'm trying to register as a partner but getting an error stating "http://www.microsoftintegrity.com/. We engage in a rigorous set of evaluation and certification processes; as a result your request was blocked. If you require further information please reach out to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=868372 with reference number: XXXXXXX" The problem is I can't get into the Partner Portal, as I'm not yet a partner, to raise said support request. I've tried to request resolution through Office 365 portal, hoping they'd facilitate contact with partner support but they seem to be confused as to how to facilitate the connection. I have no clue why I'm getting this error as I use the DUNS lookup to provide company information. I've also entered it in by hand. Would love to become a Microsoft partner with my venture but need some support to overcome this "penalty box" Anyone have ideas?janitorJun 24, 2025Copper Contributor146Views0likes4CommentsPre-Sales Funded Engagement - Business Apps - CRM Vision & Value - Eligibilty
Hi community we are studying the delivery guide for funded engagement CRM Vision & Value. We have some customer eligibility related questions, so I appreciate some clarification from Microsoft. Thanks! Ralf The provided TCO calculator and the Delivery Guide gives the impression that funding is ONLY available if our prospect migrates from Salesforce to D365 CRM. What if our prospect is ..... 1. ... using Excel sheets to manage support tickets - not eligible for funding? 2. ... using Monday.com, or hubspot to manage sales - not eligible for funding? 3. ... using a self-made application to manage campaigns - not eligible for funding?SolvedRalfWJun 13, 2025Brass Contributor836Views0likes6CommentsCSP potential customer on MCA multitant/ shareholding
Hello, Thank you for the opportunity to write about this. We have a request where a customer would like to implement Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations on a multi-tenant basis. However, there are now the challenges that the customer wants to map several holdings of his company network in his productive environments. Is this a license violation if the customer includes company holdings from his company network, as shown in the diagram? In my opinion, it is clear from the MCA that the customer cannot license company A in his tenant under CSP in the case of minority shareholdings. Is this correct? AS employees of companies B and C provide services for company A, the customer would like a one- tenant solution Is it possible to reach an agreement with Microsoft for this company construct without concluding an EA? Thank you!NJUSTENMay 26, 2025Copper Contributor150Views1like3CommentsDowngrade license for business central 21
We have a client who requires our vertical developed in C/AL code. We are currently in the process of migrating our development. However, we need to be able to downgrade from version 25 of the software our client has purchased to version 21 of Business Central on-premises in order to obtain the .flf license. We understand that the updated licensing policies only allow downgrading from two previous versions, but the flf licenses have been retired, and the latest version that contains them is 21. What can we do in this case to authorize a downgrade? As an additional note, our client's license is perpetual.SolvedAlexBolañosMay 19, 2025Copper Contributor71Views0likes1Comment
