Hi
We are a vendor in South Korea and we are under the SPLA model (not CSP) and I would like to clarify the minimum licensing requirements for Dynamics 365 for Finance and for Supply Chain Management(SCM) apps. I have read through the entire June 2020 Microsoft Dynamics license guide document. From that I understand that there are a minimum of 20 full base user licenses required for Finance and the same applies to the SCM app. Once fulfilling the minimum base of 20 full license users for one particular app, say Finance, we can purchase attach licenses to add-on to the purchased based licenses.
But say if I have 30 people in the organisation, and 20 of them are Finance full users, and the remaining 10 users want SCM functionality, does it mean I need to purchase another minimum of 20 base full licenses for SCM (i.e. a total of minimum 40 licenses for 30 people)? That would mean for a 30 person organisation, the expense for licensing Dynamics Finance and Supply Chain has increased by a huge amount. What would be the best budget-friendly license configuration combination for my 30 user example so we can sell the solution to the customer?
Could I buy 20 base full Finance licenses then 10 activity level SCM licenses for 10 other users? (I am guessing not if I read the license guide correctly)
Also, would answers to the above question(s) apply to both our existing customer upgrading from AX2012 (on-prem) to Dynamics 365 in the cloud as well as a brand new potential customer ?
Thanks!
