With Spinpanel you can offer self-service license management to your end customers. Here's how.
Step-by-step instructions
If you want to enable one of your end customers to self-service their licenses, you need to:
- Enable self-servicing for your end customer
- Create a role for license management
- Assign a role with sufficient rights for license management
Step 1 - Enabling self-service
To enable self-service for one of your end customers, click on Relationships and select a customer form the right hand side window.
Once you click on a customer, you can use the toggle under the 'Relationship settings' and move it to the right as indicated in the screen below:
Step 2 - Creating a role for license management
After you enabled self-service, you also need to assign a role to at least one user with your end customer, giving that user sufficient permissions to assign licenses.
You can create a role that will only give permissions for license management.
Available roles:
- License management
- Report management
- User management
Select 'Roles' under the Manage section and click Add.
Give it a role name and a short description(optional).
Once its saved , you will find a License Management toggle button under the general tab, which you need to move to the right for the feature to be enabled. Screen captured as below.
Step 3 - Assigning a role for license management
Once you've created a role with sufficient permissions for license management, you must assign this role to one or more users of your end customer.
