Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finops

FOCUS-aligned FinOps for Microsoft Dynamics 365 — primarily per-user-per-month seat pricing across Sales, Customer Service, Field Service, Project Operations, Finance, Supply Chain, Commerce, HR, plus tenant-priced Customer Insights and metered Dataverse capacity. Largest savings come from the qualifying-offer attach pricing (subsequent apps per user at $20–$30 vs full price), right-sizing Customer Insights profile capacity, and using Team Members for read-mostly users.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finops is the FinOps profile for Microsoft Dynamics 365 on the APIs.io network, aligned with the FinOps Foundation Framework.

It defines 8 billable meters, billed in USD (settlement varies), on a monthly (annual commitment for most apps) cycle, and pricing category subscription (per seat) + tenant + usage (storage/api).

The profile maps 9 FOCUS columns for cost-allocation reporting.

Tagged areas include Business Applications, Cloud, CRM, Enterprise, and ERP.
