Posted on by EssexRocks 49

I have an installation of BC V16 on prem subscription. The flf has been applied and if I use Export-NAVServerLicenseInformation I do not see how many users it contains If I attempt to create more users than the license I get an error but I would like to use PS to see how many are in the flf. Is this possible?

    Hi,

    When I use Export-NAVServerLicenseInformation with my developers license loaded in my BC Version 16.6 environment the output incudes the following details: 

    Cmdlet: Export-NAVServerLicenseInformation BC160

    ****************************************************************************

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks for the reply. When I do that I get this

    ****************************************************************************

    Name                                                                  Amount

    ----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------

    Country Code: Great Britain                                                1

    Dyn365 Business Central Codeunits (each)                                  10

    Dyn365 Business Central Essentials                                         2

    ****************************************************************************

    This is a client license and I do get more info in my reseller license. Should I regard the Dyn365 Business Central Essentials                                         2 as the number of users?

    Thanks

    Phil

    Hi Phil,

    Yes, it seems your license is configured for 2 Essentials Users. 

    Hope that helps!
