When to change the license

  • If an employee has left and you need to replace them in the system
  • If you need to add a new user to the system but have no available licenses, you can temporarily or permanently remove access from another user

How to replace a user

If you need to replace a user, you must be logged in as an administrator.


First, handle the user whose license you want to remove:

  1. Go to Administration
  2. Select "Users" from the menu
  3. Choose the user you want to remove from the list
  4. Select "Employee without a license" (this will remove the license)
  5. Save the settings

Now, let's assign the license to a new user:

  1. Go to Administration
  2. Select "Users" from the menu
  3. Choose the user you want to assign the license to from the list
  4. Select the required license - manager or active employee
  5. Assign a role to the user
  6. Save the settings

If the user is not yet in Aptien, create a new user in step three instead of selecting from the list.
