Guest user - Limitation

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 45

Hi,

When we invite a guest user from another domain, he can use Business central if we assign a licence.

But, there is a lot of limitation.

for exemple, with the new Mail capabilty extension ,  Choose Current user option.

the email adress of this kind of user is : guestuser_guestdomain.com#EXT#@mydomain.com

And so when trying to send email ( quote or invoice ), there is an error : 

Ressource could not be discovered

It's a big limitation.

anybody already had this problem and found a solution ?

thank you

    Is that just for when they compose an email directly instead of emailing a document? The latter has value. The former seems less useful as they can just access their existing email client to send an email with their address. You of course have email scenarios to cater for documents: joshanglesea.wordpress.com/.../

    Interesting to hear about the other limitations but this one has clear work arounds

    Hi Josh,

    it is for both : composing an email and sending document.

    This workaround of using the email client is for good for one document, or a few document only.

    If a guest user have to create and send all the invoice each month, so selecting all the sales invoices , and try to send them all at once, he can't.

    He can't use a Sharedmailbox because he's not part of the tenant, so can't be added in the Sharedmailbox.

    Using the SMTP option work , but had to activate SMTP on tenant LEVEL with Powershell.

    SMTP is really slow comparing  to the other option, but at least work for Guest user.
