Ownership Tab

FlexNet Manager Suite 2019 R2 (On-Premises Edition)

This tab displays details about the ‘ownership’ of this license by enterprise groups, including up to one each from location, corporate unit, and cost center. You may also record the name of the delegate who has responsibility for the license (for example, the manager of the corporate unit that owns the license).

These settings are, in the main, an administrative record of convenience. These settings:

  • Have no impact on compliance calculations
  • Do not limit how the license can be allocated to individual users and computers across the enterprise (on the Consumption tab)
  • Do not limit how entitlements under this license can be assigned to other enterprise groups (on the Group assignment tab)
  • Have no relation to legal limitations on the consumption of this license (on the Restrictions tab).

For help in using the search fields, see To Use a Fly-Down.

Access rights

Where you have operators whose view of data is restricted to specific enterprise groups, they can only see licenses owned by those same groups (or their descendent groups). By default, they can neither see licenses owned by other groups, nor see licenses that are unassigned to any groups. (You can change this behavior so that they can see licenses more widely: check the System > System Settings menu for Licensing.)

Therefore, changing the settings on this Ownership tab may alter the list of licenses visible to those operators who have restricted access rights.
