SharePoint + D365 Business Central licensing and use rights clarification

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 7

Hi,

 

We're implementing D365 Business Central for a customer, who's planning to store a significant amount of files, specificially pictures (employees will be taking pictures during diffent stages of completing a business process).

 

We're thinking of using Sharepoint for the images storage.

 

Taking a picture will be initiated by a user from Business Central and followingly, users will access the pictures through Business Central. However, ultimately the images will be stored in Sharepoint.

 

My question is - in that scenario, will the users require a license for O365 / SharePoint or their Dynamics 365 Business Central license will be sufficient?

 

Those are field workers, who don't use a PC and thus don't really need an Office license at all.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi, as far as I know, this requires a license from Sharepoint.
    For details, you can view Dynamics 365 Licensing Guide: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=866544&clcid=0x409
     
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    Hello Martin,
     
    As per my knowledge, you can set up or create SharePoint with one service account with one SharePoint license, else you can also use an Azure Storage account.
