Assigned Licenses
User access Device access
The functionality of a single Dynamics 365
application. May be full access or additional user Via shared or assigned logins
access, such as with the Team Members license.
Unassigned Licenses
Full product access Cross-application access Additional capacity
An organization may have both assigned and unassigned licenses. Details about each type are below.
Licenses grant users non-perpetual rights (with no buy-out rights) to the use of one or more specific Dynamics
365 products in the cloud (not on-premises). If your subscription payments are up to date and you adhere to
the Product Terms, you will have access to the current licensed Dynamics 365 product.
Dynamis 365 applications are installed on Dataverse Instances. Dataverse structures a variety of data and
business logic to support interconnected applications and processes. Entitlement to various Dataverse features
Assigned licenses
Assigned licenses give a named user or dedicated shared device access to specific products. Full-access user
licenses are the most common, but assigned licenses include several options for additional users, usually with
limited functionality.
Full user access licenses
Full users are those whose work requires the full, feature-rich functionality of Dynamics 365, whether in a large
organization with Enterprise licenses or a small company with a Professional license. Enterprise and
Professional licenses may not be mixed.
Several products are also available with standard and enhanced levels of functionality, such as Sales Enterprise
and Sales Premium. The licenses for these products indicate which functionality level has been purchased.
Note that Business Central (Essentials or Premium) stands alone. Reference the Business Central section for
exceptions.
Base licenses and cost savings opportunities for “attach” licenses
Microsoft provides a cost-effective way for a single Dynamics 365 user to obtain full user licensing for multiple
products. Licenses for products that provide core business functionality qualify as base licenses. (See the table
below.) Each has one or more additional applications that are frequently used by people in the same roles and
that qualify as attach licenses for that user. (These are sometimes referred to as subsequent qualifying
applications.) To take advantage of the special attach license pricing:
1. Buy the first base user license at standard pricing.
2. Review which attach licenses are available for that base. (See the qualifying products for each base
license below.)
3. Buy attach licenses for the same user at an attach license price. You may buy as many attach licenses as
are available for that base license.
Every full user must have a base license, though the base licenses don’t need to be for the same product. (For
instance, an attach license for Customer Service Professional is available both for a user with a Finance base
and another with a Commerce base.)

See Product Terms for more information on Customer Insights Attach eligibility.
If you require multiple products on the base licenses list, you may buy as many qualifying attach licenses as
you need at an attach license price.
Attach licensing details
Only assigned user licenses (not device licenses or unassigned licenses) may be bought as an attach license.
Tenant-based licenses (e.g., Electronic Invoicing), additional access licensing, and capacity licensing do not
qualify for attach licensing pricing but may be licensed separately. Some specialized Dynamics 365 products
(e.g., Guides) also are not eligible.
Base and attach licenses are identical in their core capabilities and are only differentiated in price. Attach
licenses do not include additional platform entitlements. They are licensed to access the platform entitlements
included with the assigned base license.
Note: System administrator will not be able to assign an attach license to a user who does not have the
required base license.
Customers who obtain licensing through an Enterprise Agreement and who accidentally buy an attach
license—when a base license is required—may step-up to the appropriate base license as needed. Customers
with licensing through the Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) or MPSA programs would need to return the attach
license and buy the appropriate base license instead.
Additional user access licenses
Additional users often represent a large percentage of the total users in an organization. They may consume
data or reports from line of business systems; complete light tasks like time or expense entry and HR record
updates; or use the system more heavily without requiring full user capabilities. Additional users may access all
the functionality of the respective Dynamics 365 product within the constraints described below.
Several different types of additional user license are available, all priced per month. The minimum duration
requirement for each (such as a minimum 12-month commitment, for example) is determined by the licensing
program. You must buy at least one full user license to buy additional user licenses.
• Device license: With a device license for a specific Dynamics 365 application, any number of unlicensed
users can access the product through the licensed device. Device licenses may use shared logins (such
as “Warehouse Computer” and a shared password) or individual logins (each user’s personal
credentials), depending on the application and license:
o Shared logins are available for Sales Device, Customer Service Device, Field Service Device,
Operations – Device, and Business Central Device licenses. Note that when individual users share
a login, their individual usage cannot be tracked.
o Individual logins are available for Operations – Device and Business Central Device licenses (with
no separate user license required).
Unassigned Licenses
Unassigned licenses provide tenant level access to Dynamics 365 applications and resources. They are not
assigned to specific users or devices.
Full application access licenses
These licenses are the primary licensing mechanism for certain products, such as Dynamics 365 Electronic
Invoicing and Customer Insights, which are only licensed per tenant.
Cross-application access licenses
Cross-application licenses, such as the Operations – Order Lines license, may be used to provide access to
some Dynamics 365 applications in some situations as a supplement or alternative to assigned user access.
Capacity licenses
The subscriptions for many Dynamics 365 products come with capacity entitlements or allowances, such as for
data storage, transaction volume, case routing requests, or customer profiles, for instance. The exact
entitlement depends on the specific product and licensing agreement. Capacity add-on licenses provide more
flexibility for those components subject to capacity limits but needed to support a product.
• Default subscription capacities leverage the same tenant and infrastructure and accrue across the
single tenant. Dataverse (formerly Common Data Service) capacities are shared between the following
products: Sales, Customer Service, Field Service, Finance, Supply Chain Management, Commerce,
Human Resources, Project Operations, Remote Assist, Guides, Business Central Essentials, and Business
Central Premium. Database and file storage capacities (as distinct from the Dataverse capacities) are
shared between only a few products: Finance, Supply Chain Management, Commerce, Human
Resources, and Project Operations. See Appendix D for more details.
• Capacity licenses require a minimum of a one-year subscription commitment with annual allowances
for the entitlements (such as the number of allowed transactions). The annual allowance, which is
pooled across a single tenant, applies even for capacities that are allotted per month. For instance, an
annual subscription that provides a total of 36K transactions is licensed at 3,000 transactions per
month for 12 months, but those transactions can be consumed at any point in the year, including all in
one month. For instance, a seasonal business would be able to use its allowance in six months at a rate
of 6,000 transactions per month.
Business Central connects teams across your organization with tools to help them work more efficiently,
collaborate better, and respond more quickly to changes to meet your business goals. Business Central is a
complete standalone solution that is designed to operate with some of the other Dynamics 365 products. You
may purchase Customer Service Professional attach and/or Sales Professional attach user licenses. Marketing
and Fraud Protection, tenant-based licenses, are also available for Business Central users.
Note: Internal users licensed with Microsoft 365 Business, Enterprise, and select other plans, whose
organization has one or more Business Central licenses, are granted read-only access to Business Central data
from within Microsoft Teams, at no additional cost. See here for full details.
Business Central, licensed by assigned user, is available with Essentials or Premium levels of capabilities.
Customers may deploy Business Central Essentials and Business Central Premium in separate environments, on
the same tenant. However, licensed users can only access the environment for which they are entitled. See
Microsoft Product Terms for service specific terms.
Configuration components
Business Central licenses include the following configuration components. Customers choosing to exercise
their dual use rights receive the full custom objects range numbered 50,000 – 99,999.

Commerce, which is licensed per user, helps retailers manage their operations, connect employees with data,
and offer exceptional shopping experiences. Dynamics 365 Commerce helps unify the customer shopping
experience by bringing in-store, back office, and call center functionality together in one end-to-end platform.
E-commerce may be added as an option. Commerce also eases integration to emerging channels (such as new
social media platforms) through an API-driven, headless commerce engine. Intelligent forecasting and product
recommendations enable retailers to:
• Improve in-store and e-commerce profitability.
• Drive intelligent business insights to optimize strategy and cost.
• Accelerate buying behavior through customer experiences that are unified and consistent across
buying channels.
➢ Digital Messaging and Voice Channel for Dynamics 365 Customer Service
Digital Messaging and Voice Channel is an add-in application for Customer Service Enterprise licenses. It
includes Digital Messaging (Chat for Dynamics 365 Customer Service, third-party SMS) and Voice Channel.
Digital Messaging and Voice Channel is licensed per user.
You can access additional capabilities through Dynamics 365 Remote Assist, if you have additional software
licenses such as OneDrive for Business, Exchange Online, Dynamics 365 Field Service, Power BI, or Microsoft
Stream. See this help documentation to learn more.

Unused capacity will roll over for up to 12 months. Learn more
Note: Active and inactive assets carry historical data and count against the capacity limits.
Customer Insights is licensed per tenant and includes entitlements to install both
the Customer Insights - Journeys and Customer Insights - Data applications in up
to four different environments per application. It also includes a base capacity of 10K Interacted People for
engagement via the Customer Insights - Journeys app and 100K Unified People for profile unification via the
Customer Insights - Data app, as well as default Dataverse capacity. Purchase additional licenses to accrue
Note: Phone numbers and messaging services are not included in Dynamics 365 Customer Insights. Text
messaging from within the app requires a separate provider subscription (e.g., Microsoft ACS or other third-
party systems SMS providers) integrated with Journeys to send the messages.
People stored in Dataverse, but not interacted with, do not count towards quota. Interacted status remains for
12 months post-interaction. Unified People refers to a uniquely identified individual that is created through a
collection of defined data source sets from multiple systems.
Additional capacity is available for both applications and can be purchased independently based on the
intended use. Customer Insights licenses also grant capacities for data scheduled refreshes and environments.
Buying add-on capacity does not increase the allotment of segments, KPIs, or allowed data scheduled
refreshes. Find more details about capacity add-ons and Power Platform requests in the Capacity Licenses
section.
Cross-Application Licensing
Assigned licenses
Device licenses
• Business Central Device licenses provide limited access to a subset of Business Central capabilities.
• Sales Device, Customer Service Device, and Field Service Device licenses are full access licenses. They
include the same rights as the equivalent Enterprise user license, except that access is limited to only
the licensed device.
• Guides Device licenses enable a shared user experience and only one username and password will be
provided with each device license. This license enables users to operate a guide, device licenses cannot
author a guide.
You cannot use the same device license across multiple devices, a device license must be linked to one
device. There are no limitations on the number of users that can access the application via a device
license. For details on device licensing, see Device and licensing requirements for Dynamics 365
Guides.

Dynamics 365 Field Service and Supply Chain Management licenses are not included with Dynamics 365 Guides Device.
• Operations – Device licenses provide limited access to a subset of Finance, Supply Chain Management,
Commerce, and Project Operations capabilities.
• Remote Assist Device licenses enable a shared user experience and only one username and password
will be provided with each device license. Individual usage cannot be tracked for shared logins.
You cannot use the same device license across multiple devices, a device license must be linked to one
device. There are no limitations on the number of users that can access the application via a device
license.
The Human Resources Self Service user licenses enable access to employee and manager self-serve capabilities,
such as:
• Update personal employee information
• Manage the human resources activities of direct employees or those reporting up through the user’s
reporting chain
• Report sick leave
• Submit vacation requests
• View employee benefits
• Approve employee leave as a manager
• View employee information as a manager
The HR Self Service license only grants access to Human Resources, not any other Dynamics 365 product. It
does not include full user rights for Human Resources but does provide access to functionality employees
often need to manage themselves.
Operations – Activity license
The Operations – Activity user license provides limited access to the Commerce, Finance, Human Resources,
Project Operations, and Supply Chain Management applications. Operations – Activity use rights include all
Team Members use rights as well as the right to:
• Approve all Operations – Activity related transactions (see Appendix F for details).
• Create or edit items related to warehousing, receiving, shipping, orders, vendor maintenance, and all
budgets
• Operate a point-of-sale (POS) device, store manager device, shop floor device, or warehouse device.
Team Members licenses
The Dynamics 365 Team Members user license grants a named user the following rights for Customer Service
Team Members, Sales Team Members and Project Operations Team Members application modules. These
rights are for their own use and not for activities for, or on behalf of, other people. (For instance, the license
doesn’t grant managers the right to perform the same actions for direct reports.)
• Create, read, update, and delete contacts, activities, and notes
• Update their own employee information
• Record time, materials, and expenses
• Approve time, expenses, materials, and invoices
• User reporting and dashboards
• Participate as a consumer of Dynamics 365 services, such as responding to surveys
The Dynamics 365 Team Members user license also grants a named user the following rights for Finance,
Unassigned licenses
Operations – Order Lines license
Operations – Order Lines allows you to extend the use of the Commerce, Finance, Project Operations, or Supply
Chain Management applications with an alternative to user and device-based licensing. The Operations – Order
Lines license enables internal users, partners, customers, connected automated systems, loT devices and bots
to update specific tables with transactional licensing based on the number of transactions updated in those
tables.
Operations – Order Lines licenses:
• Support more scenarios that involve external users.
• Alleviate pricing and licensing friction in many common multiplexing scenarios.
• Enable licensing of automated systems and devices that don’t include users, such as in IoT scenarios.
• Improve licensing cost transparency and predictability.
• Tie licensing costs more directly with business outcomes.
If a transaction type includes a qualifying order line type, then use of Operations – Order Lines is permitted.
The following scenarios require a user or device license:
• Direct access to the Commerce, Finance, Project Operations, or Supply Chain Management
applications.
• Indirect access to these applications with a transaction type or action that is not covered by the
qualifying order line types.
While order line licensing is restricted to designated order line types, additional entity records that are required
to support and are directly referenced by an order line, may be created, or updated with the order line without
a user or device license. Those additional entity records will not be counted as extra order lines unless they are
a designated order line record type (see table above).
Operations – Order Lines capacity details
Operations – Order Lines is licensed by tenant per month, with an annual commitment, and includes an
allowance of 100K transactions per month, enforced annually for a total of 1.2 million transactions. The creation
of new order lines and updates to existing order lines count against the 100K transaction allowance. Deletions
do not count. If you reach the transaction limit before the subscription year is complete, orders will not be
blocked, but you’ll receive warnings and can address the difference on your subscription anniversary by
purchasing additional capacity.

Multiplexing
Multiplexing refers to your use of hardware or software to pool connections, reroute information, or reduce the
number of devices or users that directly access Dynamics 365. Multiplexing does NOT reduce the required
number of licenses of any type. Any user or device that accesses Dynamics 365—whether directly or
indirectly—must be properly licensed or otherwise granted access (such as for external users) in one of the
manners already discussed.
Dynamics 365 licenses are required for users or devices that directly input, query, or view data from Dynamics
365. Similarly, licenses are required for users or devices that input, query, or view data from Dynamics 365
through a pooling device. Pooled connections use a non-interactive Dynamics 365 user account (or application
access in Business Central) that can access the system but only via the web service layer. Internal users and
devices accessing Dynamics 365 data indirectly through a website or via an API to a separate service (such
Microsoft Outlook) must also be properly licensed, regardless of whether they are set up as a Dynamics 365
user for the service.
For example:
• Any user or device that accesses the service, files, data, or content provided by the service that is made
available through an automated process requires a Dynamics 365 license.
• The number of tiers of hardware or software between Dynamics 365 and the ultimate user or devices
does not affect the number of licenses required.
Dynamics 365 applications use Dataverse capacity and features to store and secure data. Power Apps users
who have a Power Apps license may use custom applications to access (that is, create, read, update or delete)
any Dynamics 365 non-restricted table in the Dataverse. However, Power Apps users and devices that need to
create, update, or delete data in Dynamics 365 restricted tables must be properly licensed for Dynamics 365.
For more details on Dynamics 365 restricted tables, see Restricted tables requiring Dynamics 365 licenses -
Power Apps | Microsoft Docs.
Note that if a licensed user receives data from an unlicensed user, the licensed user may manually enter this
information into Dynamics 365. This scenario is not considered multiplexing because the manual action of
moving and entering the data is performed by a licensed user.
For qualifying indirect transaction types, the Operations – Order Lines license may also be used for indirect
access without a user or device license. Please see the Operations – Order Lines license section for details.
For additional information about multiplexing, see the Microsoft Multiplexing Overview.
Dual write
Dual write enables customers to synchronize data from the AOS applications Commerce, Finance, Supply Chain
Management, and Project Operations into Dataverse. The dual write capability is configured at the table level,
enabling you to designate the specific tables to synchronize with Dataverse. Find more details here.
A specific license is not required to enable dual write, nor is additional licensing required if you want to
configure dual write against unrestricted tables. When dual write is configured against a restricted table,
however, users making updates in Dynamics 365 that result in updates to those restricted tables must be
appropriately licensed. For example, if Finance users are leveraging dual write to integrate the Invoice Process
(a Dataverse restricted table), these users need to be appropriately licensed.
For a list of restricted tables, please check here.
You can add up to 15 tables (standard and/or custom) per Team Members application module. If you want to view (read only) more than
15 tables, you can do so by creating dashboards and sub-grids. See more information on Team Members license documentation.
To make it easier to understand the licenses required, each Commerce, Finance, Human Resources, Project
Operations, and Supply Chain Management security role has a predetermined user type. By assigning security
roles to users, you can identify what user license those users require.
For example, in a manufacturing organization, the accountants and field service technicians require different
use rights. By assigning those user groups to the appropriate security role, you can ensure they get the
functionality they need and determine the user license type that is required.
Notes:
• You can assign multiple security roles to one user. In that case, the highest user license type required
will cover all the user’s needed rights. Full user licensing is the highest type.
• You can also configure or customize security roles. This may impact the license required for the new or
modified roles. Please refer to Customization/Licensing Requirements for more information about how
such customization can impact licensing requirements.
• Financial reporting functionality is included in select Dynamics 365 products. To get use rights for this
functionality, financial report designers need a Finance user license, and financial report viewers need a
Team Members license.
• Admin rights apply across Commerce, Finance, and Supply Chain Management. For example, if you
have a Finance license, you have admin rights not only for Finance but also Supply Chain Management
and Commerce.
• Operations – Activity and Team Members use rights are included in full user licenses, and those rights
apply across products. For instance, a Finance user has use rights to Operations – Activity level access
to Commerce and Supply Chain Management, as well as the use rights for Team Members level access
to those workloads and to Customer Service, Field Service, Project Operations, and Sales.
• Human Resources Self Service use rights are included in the Team Members and full user licenses.
Those use rights apply across Commerce, Customer Service, Field Service, Finance, Human Resources,
Supply Chain Management, and Sales.
Select Dynamics 365 applications include limited Power Apps, Power Automate and Microsoft Copilot Studio
use rights. The tables below provide a summary of these limited use rights. See the Power Platform Licensing
Guide for full details.
