D365 FO IUR - legacy benefits
Dear Community We have been using a D365 Finance instance since 2019 as IUR. As from my understanding, from the old silver/gold ERP competency. Since we bought the legacy benefits this summer, I assumed we‘ll get the D365 instance extended as well. But know I have to learn, that this is not included in the legacy benefits and our subscription will run out in one month. We‘d have to buy the subscriptions - really funny, we can not even use the software internally that we are selling/implementing at our customers? I know, we could get the Business Applications Designation - but for a partner with 20 employees, there is no chance to reach this (maybe for one year, but not a couple of years consecutively). Any ideas on this one? cheers Daniel
Microsoft E3 and Windows 10/11 E3 CSP Licenses and VDA Rights
Does a user licensed with a Microsoft E3 or Windows 10/11 E3 licensed through CSP, have VDA Rights for an onprem VDI server? My understanding is that this was recently changed to allow these rights through a CSP Agreement, whereas before it was only allowed through an EA or MPSA agreement. Here is the documentation I have found on this that I am hoping you can verify. I’ve attached the presentation from Microsoft that announced this change. Please go to slide 21 where you can see that you can run Windows hosted desktops on a server through the CSP model. I have attached the Licensing Brief for licensing for Virtual Desktops. If you look at Page 8, you will find the Summary Table, that shows that with a Microsoft E3, you have the ability to run the Microsoft E3 (or Windows E3) on an on-prem server. Thank you!Price increase D365, impact on Base/Attach model?
Hi all, Microsoft announced a general price increase of D365 licenses, with a increase of 10-15% for certain suites. See following blog: New pricing for Microsoft Dynamics 365 effective October 2024 - Microsoft Dynamics 365 Blog. I wonder how this price increase will affect the Base/Attach model and combinations you can make. Eg. the D365 Sales Enterprise license with increase from $95 --> $105. While the D365 BC Premium will remain on $100 (no increase for BC). This means, Sales Enterprise will be more expensive than BC Premium. Currently we can attach Sales Enterprise on a BC Premium license: General rule of thumb is that the Base license must be the highest priced license, and Attach licenses should be the cheaper licenses. But with this price change this will be turned around between Sales/BC. So how will this price increase impact the Base/Attach model for such cases and existing customers?

Looking to find out what has to be quoted via FTE count versus actual user/device count. I know the base product needs to be at FTE count. What about Endpoint Configuration Manager? I know that anything that can be purchased as a FTE, needs to be purchased that way, but Endpoint Configuration Manager may be different (or does it need to be licensed by FTE count as it is a component of the Core CAL? There are two options: Endpoint Config Manager per OSE and Endpoint Configuration Manager per user. Are the requirements different for each?
