Hi All
What type of aouthemtication do i need to access Dynamics 365 Business Center
Should i have 365 Account ?
Or can i use Windows Account ?
If you are in Business Central online you need an Azure AD account and that is basically the same as a office 365 account.
In BC on prem you will be able to use a windows / local AD account. But you can even use Azure AD in BC on prem.
Hi, just adding some info.
If you are talking about On-Pre.
You can use following Credential Type.
Authenticating Business Central Users with Azure Active Directory (Sign in to Business Central On-Premises with Office 365 account):

For SaaS, in addition to the office 365 account, you can also use an external account to log in.

Hope this helps.
