License Reclamation is the process of taking back licenses from application users. These users fall into one of the following scenarios.
Reclaimed licenses help optimize SaaS spend and increase procurement efficiency because you avoid buying additional licenses for new license requests. You also limit security risks by reclaiming licenses from inactive employees in your HR Roster. To achieve these goals, SaaS Manager provides an automated License Reclamation workflow. In addition, SaaS Manager’s reclamation history tracks each step of the License Reclamation workflow and each License Reclamation status. For details, refer to Reclaiming Licenses.
The Office 365 integration instructions were updated to reference the following license reclamation information:
As part of the Reclamation task, only the license that is tracked under the Office 365 application is reclaimed or unassigned. The remaining licenses that are assigned to the user are unaffected.
User.ReadWrite.All permissions are required to modify the license assigned to the user.
The following steps explain how to reclaim Office 365 user licenses using the SaaS Manager user interface.
