Licensing changes<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Microsoft is rolling out a new way to manage user licenses across Dynamics 365 Finance, Supply Chain, Commerce, Project Operations, and Human Resources. The goal? More clarity, better control, and fewer surprises.

These changes are designed to simplify administration, but they also require action by November 1, 2025<\/strong> to avoid access restrictions, compliance risks, and added costs.

A D365 Licensing Assessment <\/strong>from Nexer will help you understand Microsoft licensing changes, evaluate your license structure to ensure your team has access to mission-critical systems, and optimize spend. <\/p>\n\n \n \n\n
