License Overview page (MaaS360 Portal)

The License Overview page lists all the licenses that are available for the customer account. For each license, the page displays the type of license, the license part number, and the number of licenses purchased and used by devices. Business partners and administrators can assign or remove licenses in bulk from devices.

Access the License Overview page at MaaS360 Portal > Setup > License Management.

Note: The License Overview page also displays service license bundles that are purchased by the customer account. These service license bundles apply at the customer account level only. You cannot use license management actions to assign service bundles to devices.

Example of the License Overview page:

License management based on access rights

Access rights are the level of access that is associated with a new role that is assigned to an account. Based on the access rights in a role, administrators can manage license assignments, view license reports, and export license reports. When you add a role, you can grant access rights. For more information about adding roles, see Creating an admin role for portal administrators. When the role is added and assigned to an administrator customer or Business Partner account, the administrator can perform those functions based on the access rights that are enabled for that role. For more information about assigning roles for an administrator, see Adding a portal administrator account.

In the License Management section, you can add the following access rights to a role:

Manage licenses: Administrators can change licenses that are assigned to a device, perform actions such as bulk assignment, bulk revoke, view bulk license history, and change device entitlements from the Device view page.
View license reports: Administrators can view and download license usage reports.

MaaS360 accounts that are enabled with both access rights can manage license assignments, view license reports, and export license reports. These access rights are enabled by default for Service Administrator accounts.

Viewing the Grant Access Rights page:

Note:

Administrators with the Service Administrator role can view the License Overview page and perform bulk assignment and bulk revoke actions. If administrators need access to the License Overview page, but are not assigned the Service Administrator role, those administrators must be granted the following access rights:

Manage licenses: Administrators can change licenses that are assigned to a device, perform actions such as bulk assignment, bulk revoke, view bulk license history, and change device entitlements from the Device view page.
View license reports: Administrators can view and download license usage reports.
