You’ve created the instance, now it is time to set up the Dynamics CRM. Before Dynamics 365 it was very straight forward approach to start with the vanilla instance, Now you have option to select which module you want to try (In Dynamics 365 you can create your own apps with limited set of entity so it’s all part of the great Dynamics CRM makeover, I’ll write a post about how to create Dynamics 365 customized apps later).
So either select a module or select everything ( we are greedy 🙂 so we select all )

When you create a free trail you get 25 Dynamics CRM licence which means you can create 25 different user. Each user can have their distinctive role. We’ll discuss about roles in some other post. Here is how you can create user and assign licence to it (another complete article will explain different ways of creating user and what user’s roles means )
Open O365 portal
- Navigate to users
- Click on plus sign

- Assign licenses
And 90 % of the job is done
Now we need to give this user a security role , the security role is to provide user the certain level of privileges in the system which he is assigned or authorized to do there are multiple type security role already built-in which are ready to use we’ll use those for now
