In Business Central on-prem we can manage user permissions based on Azure AD security groups, but in the SaaS version this is not an option. If a tenant has many users it is a very time consuming task to add permissions to each user. The current process is to add a BC license to users then update users from O365 in BC and then add/modify user groups. The preferred process would be to create new users in Azure AD/O365 portal and add relevant security groups and licenses. As today a users with a valid BC license logging into https://businesscentral.dynamics.com/ will be created automatically in BC and based on a mapping between AD security groups and BC user groups they should get the relevant user groups assigned including company limitations

Would be great that for On-prem versions for BC, it would be possible to set up permissions for groups as well. Currently only possible for Windows groups, not the Azure AD groups, as BC doesn't recognize user memberships from Azure AD/O365 groups. Only authentication part (e-mail validation) is happening now and users seem like without any permissions.
