Hi Team,

 

We would like to activate the Microsoft Dynamics CRM accounts that are disabled for the past 2-3 years. We contacted the "Sales Chat" team they suggested us to contact you for Microsoft Dynamics related queries.

 

Please let us know if you are the right team to contact for CRM accounts, if not redirect us to the concern team. Upon your confirmation we will share the user login information that needs to be activated, we would like to keep our accounts confidential, please let us know how to proceed further.

 

 

Thank you

Hari C

    You can check with your current Software vendor  or IT Service Provider Vendor from you buy the licenses. They can help you out on this.

    Hope this will help you.

    Hi Hari C,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Dynamics Communities.

    All Dynamics 365 users account can be reactivated reassigning a D365 license for users on Office 365 (Active Users). If this accounts were deleted from Office 365 (and 30 days has pasted), this account caanot be recovered and by cosnequence, cannot be reactivated inside Dynamics 365 instance. 

    By design, users account are not deleted from D365 instance, only deactivated. If you find the user account on "Disabled Users" list inside D365 organization, this account can be reactivated, however if an ID was inserted on username, means that user account was deleted from Office 365. 

    In this scenario, there is no way to reactivate and user must be recreated.

    Thanks,

    Hi Hari C,

    I advise against sharing your credentials with anyone in this group.  They are generally highly skilled and knowledgeable but I believe are in no way accountable or liable for help or advice they provide in here, me included.  I offer the following advice as part of the user community, I am not compensated in any way for this service.:

    As Kamalkant Sharma posted, you should reach out to your Dynamics 365 partner and have them assist you in the reactivation of your Accounts or Users.  They may charge a fee for the work they complete.  If you do not know your partner or do not have one go here to find one:
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/solution-providers/home

    It is a little unclear in your message if you want to activate Accounts or Users.  They are different (some times users are referred to as user accounts, making it tricky). 
    - Accounts are generally companies that you have a relationship with.
    - Users are generally individuals that login and work in your CRM.   For the most part they require licenses.

    Having said that the process of activating Accounts is straight forward.

    In your CRM go to Sales, then Accounts, select the inactive account view, select the record you want to activate (by checking the box to the left of the record) then in the menu above select activate.
    To activate users it depends if you are online or on premise.

    High level:
    for on premise, go to settings, security, users.
    select the disabled users view
    select the user you want to enable by clicking on the checkbox to the left of the user record.
    click on enable
    You may also have to assign security roles

    for online go to your Office365 administration center select users locate the user you are looking for by their email address (it must match the email address in CRM) - this is a rule of thumb...
    assign the user a Dynamics 365 CE license.
    In a few minutes the user will become active in your D365 CE.

    Thanks,
    Justin
