Sublicensing allows users to transfer available seats on their license to other accounts. This article explains the requirements and process for sublicensing.
¶ How to Sublicense an Available Seat
If your license contains an entitlement that allows sublicensing, a License Management menu item will become available in the sidebar.
Navigating to the License Management page will display all available InstaMAT Licenses for your Abstract ID.
Click the button to bring up the Edit License popup. Under the Edit Sublicenses section, click the Add button.
From here, enter the email address for the sublicensee and the amount of activations you would like them to receive.
The
Max Activation Countfor the main account's license represents the total number of seats that can be authorized with that license.Available Seatsrefers to seats that have not yet been authorized.
After all sublicensees have been added, click the Update button to update the license.
An email will be sent to all designated sublicensees, prompting them to complete their Abstract ID setup in order to access and utilize the granted sublicense. If a sublicensee already has an Abstract ID, they can begin authorizing InstaMAT with their credentials.
An email will also be sent confirming the allocation of the license.
¶ Reclaiming a Sublicensed Seat
A sublicensee must deauthorize their license before the main account can reclaim that allocation.
If a sublicensed seat is node-locked, it is not possible to deauthorize it.
If an issue arises where it is necessary for an admin to remove a sublicensed seat, please create a Technical Support request within InstaMAT License Management.
