Business Central: Team memeber for warehousing?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

iNECTA has develop a warehouse solution that allows a warehouse worker to, through RF scanning, scan an item into the system and post them. It is our understanding that the warehouse worker would have to have a premium license to complete this process. Our issue is that a company would rather not pay for the premium license for their warehouse associates, especially if they have a large warehouse and many warehouse workers. Currently we have a customer, that have 65 warehouse workers that would need access to a scan gun or production order.

Is it possible to get away with a warehouse worker using a team member license and still be able to complete the process described above?

We see that there may be Power Apps capabilities that could potentially bypass this issue. If we did develop the solution outside NAV, in PowerApp or even using .NET. Would we have to pay the same price?

How about if we did this only on the onprem with perpetual licensing, could we then use either multiplexing or the limited user/team member (and connecting through web services) ?

    The Dynamics 365 Business Central Team Members subscription is a named user subscription designed for users who are not tied to a particular function, but who require basic Dynamics 365 Business Central functionality. This license includes read access as well as some write access for select light tasks across Dynamics 365 Business Central functionality for a given tenant. The Dynamics 365 Business Central Team Members SL grants a user full read access to Dynamics 365 Business Central Essentials and Dynamics 365 Business Central Premium for a given tenant. In addition, the Dynamics 365 Business Central Team Members SL includes some limited use write access to Dynamics 365 Business Central Essentials and Premium.

    Dynamics 365 Business Central Team Members also includes the “PowerApps for Dynamics 365 Applications” license. Dynamics 365 Business Central Team Members users can use PowerApps to access Dynamics 365 Business Centre within the bounds of their Team Members license.

    Dynamics 365 Business Central Team Members requires that at least one other user be licensed with Dynamics 365 Business Central Essentials or Dynamics 365 Business Central Premium.

    Dynamics 365 Business Central Team Members users can do the following:

    • Read anything within Dynamics 365 Business Central

    • Update existing data and entries in Dynamics 365 Business Central - existing data are records like

    customer, vendor or item records which are already created. Entries means entries on which it is specifically allowed from an accounting perspective to update specific information. (e.g. due date on customer ledger entries)

    • Approve or reject tasks in all workflows assigned to a user

    • Create, edit, delete a quote

    • Create, edit, delete personal information

    • Enter a time sheet for Jobs

    • Use PowerApps for Dynamics 365

    SO: the answer to your question is No, you cannot do that with a Team Member license.

    If you use PowerApps, this could be ok.

    An external user could be the best choice for on-prem solution with web services.

    please if you can elaborate, why we can't use team member for that 

    and how we can use the external user through webservice?
