Using the same Business Central AppSource app in multiple offers (including a bundled solution)

Hi everyone,

I’ve developed a Business Central extension that I plan to sell on Microsoft AppSource as a per user offer plan.

In addition to the standalone version, I’d also like to include this same app as part of a bundle or combined solution offering (for example, packaged together with other extensions or services).

My plan was to wrap the standalone app in a separate app and create entitlements there, but the problem with that is I can't use permissions or create permissions from objects from another module.

The bundled offering will not be made transactable through AppSource. This means I can't create entitlements in the standalone app.

Is there a way where I can set up entitlements and permissions for the apps to work for both scenarios - as a standalone app and a bundle.

Any official guidance or examples from other partners who’ve done this would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance!
