Weekly Topic: Named Database

Welcome to our weekly topic on Web Client.

One of the features we added was Named System Database. It was mainly to make Web Client and hosting multiple customers in the same environment but it also has many other uses. 

Now you can have your Dynamics database named what you want it to be named. So if you have a lot of companies your can organize them into groups for easier maintenance. For example if you are not doing payroll in all companies you can put those in a separate dynamics database and you will be able to do payroll tax updates for just the companies you need.

    It seems like this would not be legal...they would be doubling their allowed concurrent users wouldn't they?

    Good point.  It's against the license terms to have more in across your databases.  We are working on creating something to assist in tracking users in this new model.
