Why there is no logout button in Dynamics CRM On-Premise?

Hi, 

I face this question every now and then and it is very difficult to explain to the business users that there is no sign-out/logout button in Dynamics CRM on-premise. I need some very good technical reasons for this. 

thanks,

    Hi Fahad,

    Microsoft Dynamics CRM uses windows form of authentication for web application authentication . You can review this article for Active Directory and window authentication form.

    Hi Fahad,

    There is a logout button in CRM On Prem if you're running IFD instead of Windows Authentication. I'd suggest switching authentication modes (besides being accessible from outside, I prefer the forced login that you get from IFD).

    Hope this helps! I'd appreciate if you'd mark this as Answering your question.

    Thanks,

     Aiden

    Onpremise uses Active Directory Authentication, so you are always logged on using the identity that you logged on to Windows with.

    You can check following link for more details.
