In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, how do I… Sign Up For a Trial

In this exploration of Dynamics BC, the first thing I need to do is sign up for a free trial in order to try it (I have installed an on premise test system, but want to try the full online experience).

To sign up for a Dynamics BC trial, navigate to the Microsoft Dynamics 365 365 Business Central home page and click the Try for free button in the top right corner of the page:

The first step is to enter the email address you’ll use; this should be a work or school email address and not a public email service such as Outlook.com or Gmail. If you do try to use a shared email service, you will end up in a loop needing to use an organisational email. Click Next to continue:

Confirm that the entered email address is an organisation one:

You will need to provide your phone number so that a verification code can be sent out, so the supplied number must be valid; enter your phone number and clickSend Verification Code:

When the verification code arrives, enter the code in the box and click Verify:

You can invite additional people to collaborate with you; click Send invitations if you’ve entered and co-workers, otherwise click Skip and go to Dynamics 365 Business Central:

I did enter some co-workers so once those invitations have been sent, I need am back on a confirmation page and need to click Get Started:

You will then be taken to your new Dynamics BC environment and into a Cronus test company:

In addition to the Cronus company there is a blank company called My Company created; in later articles I will show how to switch between companies as well as creating new ones and a variety of other tasks.
