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?

We are managing a CSP‑managed tenant that uses Dynamics 365 embedded licenses (for example, Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise embedded, Dynamics 365 Customer Service embedded, or other service‑provisioned Dynamics entitlements). In this tenant: Legacy CSP subscriptions exist for the Dynamics 365 embedded licenses Equivalent NCE subscriptions are ordered (or will be ordered) with equal or greater capacity Migration tooling is not available for these embedded Dynamics SKUs In Microsoft 365 Admin Center, these licenses: Are not user‑assignable Do not show a Legacy vs NCE distinction Based on Microsoft Partner Center and NCE documentation, it appears that Dynamics 365 embedded licenses are service‑provisioned, and that entitlement is governed by the subscription lifecycle, not by user‑level license assignment. We are trying to confirm the following for Dynamics 365 embedded licenses: No reassignment in Microsoft 365 Admin Center is required when transitioning from Legacy CSP to NCE, as long as sufficient NCE capacity exists. Entitlement will automatically continue or transition at legacy expiration or renewal based on the subscription lifecycle. Partner Center (and CSP billing systems) are the authoritative source for Legacy vs NCE status, rather than the customer Admin Center UI. Is there is an official Microsoft document that explicitly confirms this behavior for embedded licenses? Microsoft Support has unfortunately not been helpful in this process. Thank you.SolvedRetiring CSP SKUs
Hello, I was checking SKUs that are retiring from Oct’23 and noticed the old Dynamics SKUs in the list. Will it be an automatic transition to NCE during renewal even if the customer doesn’t decide to move to NCE? In cases where the customer has a Dynamics 365 Plan, is there a default path? How would it work? Also, I do not see these SKUs in the SKU retiring list. Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Plan Tier 1 (1-99 users) Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Plan Enterprise Edition Tier 1 (1-99 users) Does it mean there is no action required for these SKUs?Solved2.4KViews0likes11CommentsAzure Plan NCE Pricelist Download
Dear community, Hope you are doing great. We are a Distributor (ex. Indirect Provider) and we recently discovered a change in terms of Pricing in Partner Center, and more specifically when it comes to Azure Plan Pricelists download. Usually, we were able to download the respective Azure Plan pricelist as a Category under the NCE option. However, what we see now is an option in Beta which redirects us to the Azure Portal. Could you please be so kind to help us identify how will we be able to download the CSV Azure Plan Pricelists as we were doing couple months ago? Thank you so much in advance for your assistance!

Hi all, If anybody has more insights on the D365 SCM Warehouse Management Only solution and it's licensing requirement, that would be great: Warehouse management only mode overview - Supply Chain Management | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn. Eg. does the customer needs to pay regular SCM licenses with 20 seat minimum? (I expect so). Or, since it's only a part of the SCM module, are there some license exceptions? Cheers, MartijnSolvedCustomer Insights: default database capacity
Hello, I would like to know if, in the context of the initial deployment of Dynamics 365 Sales or Customer Service with Customer Insights as an Attach, we indeed have a Dataverse database capacity of 25 GB included on the tenant. The licensing guide explains that the default capacity is not cumulative; however, if the client simultaneously purchases their Sales / Service seats and Customer Insights, do they indeed have 25 GB and not 10 GB? The guide specifies that the first base license for a Dynamics 365 product includes its default capacity. The term 'first' is ambiguous; are we indeed looking at a maximum of 25 GB vs 10 GB = 25 GB? A reference from Microsoft would be appreciated if possible.897Views2likes8CommentsBizApps Benefit -D365 Finance for IUR qualifies as base for an attach license?
Hello With the upcoming D365 Finance and Operations user license validation, we expect to see some of our users required to get an SCM license. In this case, we have 100 D365 Finance for IUR licenses through the benefits package. Would they qualify as the base license for SCM Attach licenses?

Hello, a company wants to join Bridge to the Cloud 3 next year. They are starting with 40 users and then scaling up to 120 users after migration. For the migration phase, they want to book 10 CSP users before joining the promotion. How should the following passage from the FAQ be interpreted? Are 10 users compliant for the preliminary project because they are scaling up to 120 users, or only 4 because they are only booking 40 licenses at the start of the promotion? Q3: Can customers who licensed a small quantity of Dynamics 365 online licenses for testing enroll in this promotion? A: Use of a free trial offer (prior to BTC3 enrollment) does not impact eligibility for this BTC3 promotion. Although customers with prior paid online licenses of the same product are normally ineligible for this promotion, as an exception, such customers are not excluded if their peak number of paid Dynamics 365 online full users to date does not exceed 10% of the number of full users that will be licensed at BTC3 enrollment. Thanks in advance!Solved
