Licencing quota and allocation cost

Posted on by CU01081947-0 716

Hello Power Apps Community,

I hope you can help please. I have the dreaded question about licencing, sorry.

Let's say I've purchased 100 licences from Microsoft, either Power Apps or Power Automate. 

I then allocate 75 of the licences to users, leaving 25 available to allocate.

Which total do I pay for each month?

Is it the 100 purchased licences or the 75 allocated licences?

I would imagine it's the 100 purchased, but just wanted to check. 

Thanks very much,

Garry

    Hi,

     

    Thank for your post. For a quick answer, you will be charged for your 100 licenses that you purchased, as opposed to what you are actually utilizing. Generally we recommend that you only buy what you need with a few licenses to flex around as business needs change.

     

    Regards,

     

    Alex
