Hi,

yes, if a user has the role cmdb_read, it will be used a fulfiller license. Refer to the following official documentation:

Base system roles

Can read any CMDB table. Contained in admin and itil.

HI Alberto Consonni, 

     Thank you for your response .But  the user do not have admin or ITIL. the user has only cmdb_read does still he considered as fulfiller?

Hi,

I think your ServiceNow sales rep is the best source for an answer to this question, as it probably depends on your contract.

However, I had a better investigation on this topic, as the cmdb_read role has been added in the Madrid version and before the most of the CMDB part was readable without any role, it might not count as a fulfiller user, but please double check with your sales ref.
