Business value

In some cases, administrators may want to transfer their Dynamics 365 Business Central environment to another Microsoft Entra tenant (formerly Azure Active Directory tenant). For example, this could be done to consolidate environments belonging to the same company in a single tenant when one company is acquired by another, or for partners to transfer a demo environment to their customer to test with. Until now, this scenario was supported through service requests that required paperwork to ensure consents from all involved parties were in place.

Feature details

In 2023 release wave 2, the process for transferring a Business Central environment to a different Microsoft Entra tenant will be a self-service scenario. Internal administrators can request an environment transfer from the source tenant, and then accept the transfer from the target tenant.
