Hy

I know recently MS introduced device based licenses for Business Central.  I cannot figure out for the life of me how to use it in the SaaS environment.

Microsoft didn't provide details on it's use besides the license guide.

Can anyone point me to directions on how to apply this license type? I have been searching for hours and nothing has turned up.

Thanks

    I'm sorry, but I read that document, but it has no information about setting this type of license in the application. Only specify what this type of license is.

    Hello,

    That link that Duilio shared did mention that your CSP needs to action on this.

    The Device License

    The Dynamics 365 Business Central Device license allows multiple users to simultaneously use a device that is covered by the license. For example, this might be a point of sales, shop floor, or warehouse device. When you have purchased a number of device licenses, up to that number of users assigned to the Dynamics 365 Business Central Device Users group can sign in at the same time. For more information, see the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Licensing Guide. The guide is available for download on the Business Central website.

    Your company's Microsoft 365 administrator or Microsoft partner can create the Dynamics 365 Business Central Device Users group and add device users as members in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center or on the Azure Portal.

    Thanks.
