If you have assigned floating licenses to members in users in your Organization, you will need to revoke them if you want those licenses to be part of the shared pool.

  • Floating License Sharing only affects Floating or Premium licenses. Fixed or Solo licenses can be individually assigned, but cannot be part of a shared floating pool.
  • Only the Administrator's licenses are shared with the Organization. Individually assigned floating licenses are not part of the shared pool, unless the assignments are revoked.
  • Only licenses owned by the Organization can be shared. Licenses assigned to the Administrator from another Organization where the Administrator is a Member / Guest are User are not part of the shared pool.
  • Only Administrators can enable or disable Floating License Sharing for the Organization.

  • A cloud-based floating license cannot be borrowed for offline use by a Member or GuestUser. The License needs to be personally assigned to that user, to allow them to borrow the license. For more information, on how an Administrator can assign a product license to a user, see the User Management Actions page.

  • Shared licenses can be engaged by Organization users, but they will not appear in the users' list of licenses.
  • Enscape users: The cloud-based floating license setup described here is for Enscape 4.1 or later. If you're already using shared floating licenses with a license key in Enscape 4.0 or older, you can use a similar setup by adding users to your Organization. Users can then sign in with their accounts to the product and use the shared floating licenses, or complete an account if they don't have one.
