Setting Activity Thresholds

Important: The Administer SaaS role or the Manage SaaS applications & users role is required to customize your activity threshold. For complete descriptions of each role available in Flexera One, see Flexera One Roles.

Setting activity thresholds offers you the flexibility in defining the number of days before a user is considered inactive to align with your organization’s expectation of SaaS license usage. The default activity threshold is 60 days. You can customize your activity threshold to 15, 30, 60, 90, or 120 days.

You can select the activity threshold when adding a new SaaS application to SaaS Management (see Adding an Application to Your Organization’s List of Managed SaaS Applications) or after the SaaS application has been added to SaaS Management (see Selecting an Activity Threshold After Integrating a SaaS Application With SaaS Management).

Note:Not all applications enable custom activity threshold. “Not applicable” will appear in the Activity Threshold drop-down menu for applications without activity threshold options.

For more expensive applications or applications expected to have daily usage, such as Salesforce or Office 365, you may select a 15-day Activity Threshold. For applications with expected infrequent usage, such as a training application like Pluralsight, you may select a 60-day Activity Threshold.

Selecting an Activity Threshold After Integrating a SaaS Application With SaaS Management

After your managed SaaS applications have been integrated with SaaS Management, you need to select an activity threshold. To select the activity threshold when adding a new SaaS application to SaaS Management, see Adding an Application to Your Organization’s List of Managed SaaS Applications).
