License types available in the subscription model:

  • Unlimited-Solutions Access License – the user may access all processes and applications built in WEBCON BPS, without limitations in regards to the number of processes and applications.

  • Single-Solution Access License – each of these licenses assigned to a user enables them to use exactly one process built in WEBCON BPS. This process must be designated by the administrator in the settings and may contain a maximum of two workflows.

  • Single-Use Access License – this license type works differently from all other access licenses. Single-Use Access Licenses are purchased in advance and contribute to a pool of pre-paid operations that can be carried out by external users. Licenses from this pool are subtracted when a user that is not a member of the licensee’s company or any of their entities (i.e. an external vendor, contractor, client, etc.) saves an instance for the first time in the given month (i.e. creates a new instance, edits, saves, moves it via paths, etc.).

  • WEBCON BPS Designer Studio CAL – the user may access WEBCON BPS Designer Studio.

  • WEBCON BPS Designer Desk CAL the user may access Designer Desk.

5. Type​

User account type. The available types are: defined system or external users, Active Directory, Azure Active Directory, LDAP, or SharePoint synchronized users.

6. Number of licenses​
