Verbiage is key here. The rule is Users within a single Company (not Tenant) cannot split license types.
If a Business Central environment has two companies within it:
- The first company which is using Manufacturing with the Premium capabilities enabled can only be accessed by Users with a Premium license.
- If the second company, on the same tenant, same environment, is only using the accounting (Essentials) capabilities and DOES NOT have Premium enabled, can be accessed by users with either Essentials OR Premium license.
So unfortunately, the accounting only Users cannot utilize the Manufacturing enabled company. That being said, if you have users doing analytics or reporting, a Team Member license would enable them to access both companies, but they would not be able to input data.
If it is a single company environment, if Premium is enabled all Users need to have a Premium or Team Member license.
