What happens when my Dynamics 365 subscription expires?
When a Dynamics 365 subscription expires, it goes through several stages: it first enters an 'Expired' state, followed by 'Disabled', and finally 'Deleted/Deprovisioned'. The expired stage begins immediately after the subscription's end date. If recurring billing is turned off, the same stages apply starting from the anniversary of the subscription.
How do I manage license transitions effectively?
To manage license transitions effectively, confirm your current license management process, validate whether the transition will be a 1:1 mapping or involve multiple licenses, and ensure you have sufficient target licenses. It's also important to consider potential service plan conflicts and to schedule the transition during non-peak times to minimize user impact.
What are the options for assigning licenses?
You can assign licenses using direct user license assignment or group-based license assignment. Direct assignment involves assigning licenses to individual users, while group-based assignment allows users to inherit licenses based on group membership. Consider potential service plan conflicts and the administrative overhead associated with each method when deciding which approach to use.
