Licensing & Prerequisites for Shop Floor Insight
Business Central License Requirements
Shop Floor Insight is typically accessed through terminals on the shop floor. Licensing requirements will vary depending if you’re running Shop Floor Insight on NAV, Business Central on-premises, or Business Central Cloud.
NAV: Users have the option of using concurrent user licenses.
Business Central: One Device License per concurrently used shop terminal is preferred. This option allows you to use a single concurrent license per shop terminal.
You may also opt to use Team Member Licenses, which can result in a cost saving versus the Device License if employees use individual devices or if a shared terminal is shared by less than five people. Note that if you use Team Member licenses, each employee using Shop Floor Insight will require a Team Member license, and they will not be able perform consumption/output or manipulate the schedule.
Office staff who need to interact with Business Central for time card approval and payroll will require a Business Central License. Office staff will often opt for a Business Central Team Member License. Essential and Premium License options are also available.
Insight Works License Requirements
