EASY for Dynamics 365 BC App

Installation from the Microsoft AppSource

The current version of the app can be downloaded anytime from the Microsoft AppSource. In doing so, an entry is generated in the "Deployment status" table, and the app is deployed in the background. Once the app is installed, you can execute the ECM Setup Wizard.

Installation on on-premise systems

The DMS solution is provided as a runtimepackage.app file. Both app files, "EASY Software AG_ECM Base Application_..." and "EASY Software AG_ECM EASY for Business Central_...", must be published in a PowerShell script.
