Allocate Entitlements

Once purchased, entitlements for an application or service
must
be allocated to the specific organization or sub-organization.
To Allocate an Entitlement
TIP: Purchased entitlements appear in the FactoryTalk Hub View Entitlements page within 1-2 hours.
Once purchased they must be allocated
to an organization. However, if you have overlapping times on
platform entitlements
you have the option to decide if you want to replace the current entitlement now or in the future. This lets you set the effective date of the new entitlement after the current entitlement expires so that you can upgrade your license without worrying about timing. While the new entitlement is waiting to be activated it is marked as pending.
Only the owner and administrator of an organization or sub-organization can allocate entitlements. The
Allocate
button is disabled for non-administrators.
  1. From the FactoryTalk Hub menu, select
    Organizations
    or
    Sub-organizations
    .
  2. From the list, select the organization or sub-organization which you want to allocate the entitlements to.
  3. From the FactoryTalk Hub menu, select
    View entitlements
    .
    The new entitlement appears at the top of
    All Entitlements
    under
    Available to allocate
    .
    IMPORTANT: To allocate an add-on entitlement you must first allocate a platform entitlement.
  4. Verify that the correct organization or sub-organization name appears in the breadcrumb.
  5. Locate the entitlement that you want to assign to your organization or sub-organization and select
    Allocate
    next to the entitlement row.
  6. Ensure that the entitlement, organization or sub-organization, and allocated entitlements quantity are correct, then select
    Allocate
    .
    The entitlement is allocated.
The allocated entitlement is now available in the organization or sub-organization to which it was allocated. Additional steps may be required for your application. See the application documentation for details.
