    Hi Castro,

    Thanks for the details!!.

    My application was being used by my customers using custom build php application and they don't access navision.

    In this case I need to buy an external Connector licence to serve the legality of Microsoft.

    Thanks for the details.

    Regards

    Hello Mouli,

    The licensing model is constantly changing. As I understand it, for NAV2009 if the people using the application you've made are external users (not workers of the company) which would be your case, then you need once license per connector.

    You can find the licensing guide here download.microsoft.com/.../Use_Terms_Retail_Dynamics_ERP_Aug2011.pdf

    In there, you can find this text:

    External Connector Licenses. You must assign each external connector license you acquire to a system

    database. Each external connector license assigned to a system database permits any number of third party users

    to access that system database. You do not need concurrent, named user or device CAL licenses for those users.

    You may not use the external connector for business process outsourcing purposes. However, you may use the

    software to provide business process outsourcing services to unaffiliated third parties provided that they do not

    access the software or system database

    Hope it helps
