Creating a gp add-on

Jimcooper

Hi
We are using a dynamics business partner to create an app for dynamics clients.

We have created this app for Xero, Quickbooks , sap business 1 and we are able to send simple instructions to clients to download and setup the app so it appears on their accounts package.


Someone told me that without a developer license we can't do this for nav or gp so we need to involve the business partner who might need a few hours which they would bill the client or us for. Clients will not download the add on if it takes hours and involves having a business partner doing it.

Can anyone clarify, can clients not easily download and setup addons themselves?
Thanks
Jim
