Overview
This article explains Contract Permissions and Contract Roles in the context of AppManager, the portal used by Client Administrators to administer OLI software access to their team.
Contract Permissions
After logging in to AppManager with your OLI credentials, click on “Contract Roles” from the left-hand sidebar.
Note: If you have multiple active contracts with OLI, you may see multiple options in the contract list. Select the one you want to view.
This screen presents a detailed list of permissions associated with this contract. This includes the name of the permission, the number of seats available, and a description (for some).
Each of these permissions makes up Contract Roles, which will be explained in the next section.
Contract Roles
For a user to have access to the software, they must be assigned to the Contract Role associated with the product(s). Contract Roles are made up of Contract Permissions.
After logging in to AppManager with your OLI credentials, click on “Contract Roles” from the left-hand sidebar.
Here you’ll find the list of Contract Roles associated with each product, how many seats are currently occupied, and the number of total seats licensed under the contract.
With this background knowledge, you can now administer access to the software.
Conclusion
Understanding the relationship between Contract Permissions and Contract Roles is key to managing access within OLI’s AppManager. As a Client Administrator, you now have the insight needed to review available permissions, allocate seats, and assign users to the appropriate roles that correspond to their software needs.
By maintaining accurate Contract Role assignments, you help ensure that your organization’s OLI licenses are used efficiently and that users have the correct access to perform their work.
