  6. Once you have selected the import button a new dialog box will appear showing you a progress bar for the import. This step usually takes 5–10 minutes, depending on the complexity of the solution. 
  7. Once the import has completed, you will see a screen with an overview of the import and components. Simply close and move onto the registration process. 

Once the import has completed, double-click on the PowerPack solution you just imported from the solutions list in D365. This will open the configuration screen of the PowerPack solution, where you can select if you'd like to register for a 30-day free trial or subscribe to the add-on.
