Assigning available licenses to locations

Licenses are assigned under the Locations tab in the Biamp Workplace admin portal. To assign a license to a location:

1. Navigate to the location you wish to assign a license to under the Locations pane in the Workplace admin portal, and select the location's edit pencil icon.

Here, we have selected the floor location in the Locations pane. We will be adding a Monitoring & Management license to cover the audiovisual devices that make up the floor's AV system.

2. Before assigning a license, make sure you have opened the correct location by verifying the location name at the top of the editing form.

3. Click on the dropdown menu in the License section of the form to show a selection list with all available licenses that can be assigned to the location.

You may need to scroll down the form to find the Licenses section.
If the location already has a license assigned to it, a license information block will be visible in the Licenses section. In this example, no information block is present.

The Select a license drop down menu open, showing a list-view of example licenses.

5. Select the appropriate license for the location and then click the Assign button.

Only one license is required per Workplace location.
Reminder: Please see the Workplace Licenses Overview article if you have any questions about which type of license to assign to a location.

The Select license drop down menu with 2 manage and monitor licenses selected. The Assign button is blue, indicating it is active and ready to assign a license.

Only one license will be assigned: Only one of the two available licenses in the dropdown menu example above will be assigned to this location. Licenses are grouped by expiration date in the user interface to help reduce the length of the list.

A license assigned message will appear to indicate a successful assignment, and a license information block will appear on the location's page.

The information block for an active license will be green.
