You don' need a login screen for the app that connect to D365. because the first time user open Power Apps, They will need to login to their Office account.

Then when they enter an app that contains Fins & Ops connector, It will prompt user to choose which account they will use to connect to D365 (Default is the same account with logged on user).

In case if you want to map Power Apps user with D365 User / Employees. You can lookup User().Email which is the email of person who open the app, Lookup from some data entity, Then you may get the Employees Personnel number that you can use to identify and mapped app user with D365 employees.

From my experience, the step with the red highlight is not so easy to archive since you need to lookup from 2-3 data entity in order to just PersonnelNumber and in some case you may need to create / edit Data Entity in D365

TIPS: If you're developing an app that connect to D365FO I recommend you to use these Extension on Chrome / Edge

Table Browser Caller for D365FO - This allow you to easily browse and search all data entity in your D365FO instance.
