The Problem

Managing VLC App Subscriptions Across Multiple Systems Creates Operational Gaps

Organizations often manage app trials, subscription renewals, billing details, user permissions, and registration updates through disconnected emails, spreadsheets, manual processes, and external systems.

As environments grow, disconnected processes create:

  • Expired trial environments
  • Inconsistent user permissions
  • Outdated subscription information
  • Billing visibility gaps
  • Manual administrative overhead

Is this part of your routine challenges?

  • A production environment loses access because the trial subscription was never converted into an active plan.
  • Teams cannot quickly determine which VLC apps are active, expired, or assigned to users.
  • Subscription plans, payment information, and registration details are updated manually across environments.
  • User permissions for app administration become inconsistent across departments.
  • App pricing and subscription information become outdated across systems.

There’s a better way to manage VLC app subscriptions, and it starts with centralizing everything directly inside Business Central.

How VLC App Management Works

See How Teams Manage VLC Apps Inside Business Central

From app installation to active subscription management, VLC App Management centralizes the entire VLC app lifecycle inside Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

Step 1: A VLC App Is Installed

A VLC Solutions app is installed inside Business Central. If Company Information contains a valid email address, the platform automatically creates a Trial Subscription so teams can begin testing functionality immediately.

Step 2: Teams Begin Using Trial Functionality

Users can immediately access app functionality during the trial period without entering payment information. Teams can evaluate workflows, permissions, operational usage, and app capabilities inside their Business Central environment.

Step 3: Subscription Plans & App Availability Are Reviewed

Administrators can review subscription plans, pricing, available VLC apps, and registration details inside VLC App Management instead of managing subscription information through disconnected systems or external requests.

Step 4: The Production Subscription Is Activated

Once payment information is submitted successfully, the trial subscription is automatically converted into an active production subscription without requiring manual app reinstallation or disconnected activation processes.

Step 5: App & Subscription Information Stays Synchronized

Administrators can refresh available apps, subscription plans, pricing information, and registration details from VLC Solutions data centers—helping environments remain aligned with the latest VLC app availability and subscription information.

Step 6: User Access & Permissions Are Managed Centrally

Organizations control app installations, subscription administration, payments, and user access through VLC APP MGMT ADMIN and VLC APP MGMT USER roles.

This helps organizations maintain centralized visibility and consistent administrative control across environments and teams.
