D365 Licensing vs Security Roles – Why can users access data without the required license?
I am working as a Power Apps developer in a Dynamics 365 environment that has the Field Service module enabled. In the same environment, some users only have Sales licenses. I assigned a security role that provides read access to the Warehouse table to a user with a Sales license. The user is able to access and read the data successfully, even though they do not have a Field Service license. This makes me unclear about how licensing is enforced in Dynamics 365. If security roles alone can grant access to tables, how do licenses actually restrict functionality? Why is it necessary to purchase additional licenses if users can still access data through security roles? Could someone clarify how licensing enforcement works in this scenario and what the best practice is?

Anyone can help me ?Removing Old MS 365 Account
I had a Office 365 account under the discontinued educational organization license. The cloud storage was supposed to be disabled by MS at some point. So, I bought a personal Ofc 365 subscription. I tried to remove references to the old account and register my new license under a different email address, however my machine is still ate up with it, it still tries to save documents to that supposedly disabled Onedrive location and Office applications still confuse it. I scanned the system registry and there are hundreds of references to the old account & configuration. This is a problem on several of my home machines. How do I totally nuke that old account?
Extracting data from complicated table....
Hey all, Below is a table I have created for tracking info for a special-needs child, the staff member caring for them, the shift, the behaviour and the score (0-5). The Staff cell for each day/shift has a drop down box with a list of staff member names. The cell to the right of the staff name would have a value from 0-5 with 0 showing no behaviours up to 5, which would indicate the behaviour was 100% during the shift. What I'm trying to extract is information such as... 1) For a given behaviour, what shift sees the best and worst - trying to measure if the child has more issues in the morning for instance, verses the afternoon or night. 2) When it comes to the staff member working the shift, who is seeing better or worst behaviours - trying to measure whether the child may have an issue with or be reacting to a staff member more than another. This could come down to staff competency or personality clash. 3) It would be great if I could work out the above by day of the week - as the child is able to select what they would like to do, this could indicate weekly cycles or potential patterns in the childs behaviour as well. While this one starts on March 16th Monday, I would be creating future tables starting at the first day of the month. Possibly a separate Excel file for each month, so the files remain manageable. I'm normally ok with working out the info i need and creating formulas etc... but this one has me a bit stumped. I had started to literally create a 'Reference Data' tab where I was cherry-picking specific cell references from the below table to create a another table, duplicating information but in a different table layout... it is getting exhausting this way and I'm still no closer to being able to work the data. Hoping someone has some relatively simple fixes using XLookup or something like that. The information is being used to help with funding and activities, so it's quite important I can get this to work. If it means redesigning the table...I'll have to do that but this is the format my partner was trying to use for ease of reporting the shift/staff/behaviour/score details. Regards
I cannot log in to my work account using SMS authentication
Hi everyone! I am requesting assistance with the following issue. I receive the message: Sorry, we're having trouble verifying your account. Please try again. Previously, SMS authentication worked, but now I am getting the error mentioned above.

Maybe blocked my mobile number. Thank you in advance for your help!
Hackers keep getting prompting me for a code on authenticator
Hello, I'm noticing that I get a random prompt for a code on the Authenticator app whose location appears to be in the Netherlands. I'm under the impression that these hackers just try logging into numerous accounts hoping that their victims will unknowingly push on a confirmation number and let them in. Is there a way to help prevent this? I would imagine that preventing logins based on unusal locations would help stop it but would like to hear your take. Thanks!Impossible to sign in with different user account
I use this browser with two MS accounts. The techcommunity does not let me choose the user account to sign in with! I'm forced to open a private window to sign in and write this feedback. So when clicking Sign In, it thinks I want to sign in with my M365 company account, and asks me to accept certain permissions. However, I want to sign in with my personal MS account. So I click cancel and get redirected to the home page. So, in order to visit the site with my personal MS account, must either use a private windows, or clear every single cookie for every single Microsoft domain, which is also NOT what I want to do. This is simply unacceptable and driving me away from using the techcommunity at all! I made a video for you to show you how broken the sign in flow is: https://i.imgur.com/KnxnPKM.mp4
Latest MS Trend: abysmal AI phone support
Hello, I've just tried three times the MS 365 Support Phone Hotline. The AI Bot is designed to just hang up or provide an aka.ms/??? link which exactly leads to the problem that I am trying to contact support for. Thanks for nothing. Hope you fire also the people that worked on the Bot and not only your support hotline staff. It seems there are none left. I am going to recommend my company to move to a different product and drop ms ai slop. Bye
Upgrading from Personal to Family
The support in have read says to upgrade from Personal to Family I buy the new plan and any remaining subscription will be converted to the Family plan but I will lose some of the remaining time. I have 18 months to go on my Personal plan so does that mean if I buy a year of Family now I will be charged the full yearly price for 12 months then have the remainder of the Personal plan added so my next yearly subscription payment would be in about 2 years? Also does anyone know how the remaining conversation works and how much I would get for my 18 months of Personal?
