For enterprise licenses, what is the best practice to track licenses, manage their renewals, and assign licenses to users?

Hi Vi,



For an Enterprise license agreement, you want to create a Software License Contract with a type of Enterprise. This allows you to track renewals and contract ownership.



You use Software License records to attach assignments to users. Typically this represents a point in time purchase of software license rights, but you can work it a little differently with Enterprise licenses. You can create records as you add users or groups of users and assign the users to the license. Then when it comes time to true up, you can attach the software license record to the Software License contract to indicate that you've trued up on those license rights.



I hope this helps. Please let me know if you need more detail.
