Guidance on licensing requirements for using managed environments
Is it sufficient to have a per-app premium licence assigned when using a managed environment or is a per-user premium licence required? I have read this guidance from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/managed-environment-licensing "Every user running an app in a managed environment must have one of the following licenses: a Power Apps Premium, a Power Automate Premium license, or a Dynamics 365 Enterprise license that gives premium Power Apps usage rights *. If you use capacity-based licenses, a managed environment must have Power Apps per app plans such as app passes allocated to it. Use of Power Apps capabilities included with Dynamics 365 Pro licenses must be only within the context of the licensed Dynamics 365 application." Does the line that I have highlighted in red mean that you can in fact use per-app licences? or is this referring to something else? Thanks Rosie
D365 Finance/Finance Premium mix&match for purchasing minimum?
Hi, can someone confirm if it's obligatory to meet the purchasing minimum requirements for both Finance and Finance Premium, i.e. if we purchase 20 regular Finance licenses, can we purchase only 5 Finance Premium or does it have to be the minimum 10? I've found resources online that say these 2 SKUs can be mixed & matched, but I can't seem to find definitive confirmation of this in the D365 Licensing Guide or any of MSFT resources. Thanks!SolvedD365 SCM Warehouse Only licensing requirement
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, MartijnSolved
BizApps 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!SolvedLicensing 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. Thanks, NickSolved
Anyone 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/SolvedSome 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?Solved
