While reading the new licensing guide I came across this section:

The Team Members subscription is a named user subscription designed for users who are not tied to a particular function, but who require basic Dynamics 365 functionality. This license entitles the user to light weight access through designated scenarios built into Team Members experience. The Team Members subscription does not provide access to custom applications and is not intended for scenarios beyond those listed in Appendix B.

So, this means that every user who needs access to a custom application also needs a full user license?

That's correct. These are the restrictions Microsoft is imposing on Team Member licenses starting April 2020.

Thank you for that.

In our case, we do not use any of the pre-installed Dynamics apps (Sales Hub, Customer Service, Project Service etc.). We got into Dynamics to just build a custom app. That's also what we are using today in Dynamics, only our custom build app (of course, this app references default entities like accounts, contacts and activities).

I am not sure how to proceed here. Is there a plan without all the Microsoft apps, where our company can use only custom built apps?

There will be a dedicated Sales Team Member App which can be customised as long as it complies with Team Member licencing, so you can add anything else in there as the licence allows read rights across all organisation data and read and edit rights on custom entities up to a max of 15

Thank you. So there will be one app accessible to our organisation's team members. In this app I can put as many custom entities as I need, but I shall allow edit access only to 15 of those entities for team members.

If I need to create another (second) custom app, full user licenses will be necessary?

As I understand it yes, here is a good article explaining it.

Thank you for the article.

What I basically need is the "need to access more than 15 custom entities" and "custom apps" - so that would be the powerapps plan.
