Modify License Allocation

This section contains instructions to modify your license allocation to other tenants.
You can increase or decrease license allocations for a tenant after activation. When you reduce a tenant’s allocation, the reduced quantity returns to your license pool, and you can reallocate it to another tenant to maximize license utilization across your organization. If you reduce license capacity for a Tenant Service Group (TSG), a fully allocated license automatically converts to a shared allocation.
When you purchase additional license capacity, it is no longer allocated to existing TSGs by default. Instead, you decide whether to assign the new capacity to the same TSG or distribute it across multiple TSGs, depending on your organization’s needs. For example, if you purchase additional licenses for a new tenant, you can directly allocate the new capacity to that tenant, or adjust allocations across existing tenants as needed.
When you reduce the license capacity:
  • You cannot reduce allocations below 200 users, the minimum required for service continuity.
  • You can only reduce licenses in multiples of 10.
  • When you reduce base license quantities, associated add-ons such as ADEM-AIOps, ZTNA Connector, or Remote Browser Isolation automatically adjust to maintain alignment.
  • The mobile users and remote networks quantity can be reduced to either minimum quantity or it can also be made zero by deselecting those options.
  • You cannot reduce the license capacity for Panorama Managed tenants.
All superusers, multitenant superusers, and business administrators of the TSG will receive notification when you reduce license capacity. If the reduction requires configuration changes (for example, adjusting bandwidth for sites), you must make these changes before committing the configuration. Until then, commits are blocked with a license quantity mismatch message.
