On July 1, 2017, the Dynamics 365 line was repackaged so that the CRM applications are now called the "Customer Engagement Plan." The ERP application is now called Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations; however, it is only available as part of the "Unified Operations Plan," which also includes the standalone applications Dynamics 365 for Talent and Dynamics 365 for Retail. Together, the two plans form the "Dynamics 365 Plan."
