Hi,

Does External User licence are use to give access to a end customer ? for exemple, to let him connect to his account directly on Business Central , and see all the invoice , download pdf, etc....

If yes, how to do it , and what the right configuration option ? ( to only let him access to his account, don't see other information,etc...)

have'nt find really real case study , only for external accountant, but not for end customer case.

 

Is there a difference between On premise - SAAS concept of External User Licence ?

Thanks.

    I’ve taken this data read scenario as a team member license requirement. To then isolate access correctly I’ve configured a profile with stripped back functionality and no customisation. Applying a permission set with security filters then ensures specific data is accessible only.

    Some links:

    Hi,

    Thank you for your response.

    It would like to take advantage of the Licensing Requirements for External Users chapter , as described in the Last Dynamics 365 Licence Guide Dec 2020.pdf ( page 41-42)

    the Guide say that for external end Customer, SL licence are not required and included. So I was thinking of type of licence in the CSP portal set to an external account , and a Standard permission set based on the special licence type, and a standard profil as well with a client specific filter option to isolate all customer information.

    Don't want to charge all my end customer for a team member licence...

    thank you.
