Adding Leaf Nodes (Users, License Server Hosts, and Projects)

In the hierarchy of an organizational structure, leaf nodes are the end nodes—they have no child nodes. Depending on the organizational structure type, the leaf nodes may be users, license server hosts, or projects. For example, if you create an organizational structure with the type User ID, the leaf nodes in the structure’s hierarchy are users.

You can add leaf nodes manually or assign unassigned leaf nodes in FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications.

To add a leaf node to an organizational structure:

1. From the Reporting tab, under Organizational Structures, click Organizational Structures.
2. Click the name of the organizational structure to which you want to add a leaf node.
3. Depending on the organizational structure type, click the New User, New License Server Host, or New Project link (in the upper-right corner). This displays the Add User, Add License Server Host, or the Add Project page.
4. Specify the leaf node settings. Required settings are identified by a red asterisk (*).
