Dynamics GP 2013 R2: Licensing for Requisitions, Employee Self Service, and Project Time: On the Microsoft Dynamics GP Support and Services blog, Kelly Dettmann, a Dynamics GP technical consultant at Microsoft, says that the team has been getting a lot of requests from partners who excited about the new Self-Service functions introduced in Dynamics GP 2013 R2.  It seems that partners are asking what type of licensing is required for a customer to use these features.

"In order to use the new self-service functions added to R2 right now, a user must be able to login to GP whether it be on the Web client or the Desktop client at least as a Limited user.  Several Self Service tasks were built into core GP including: Requisition Management, Employee Self Service, and Project Time."
