Assigning roles for managing licenses

In order to assign and revoke licenses to the users of your tenant, your user need to have assigned a specific role in the Modern Work Guide Azure App.

The actual look of the Azure portal might differ from the screenshots in this guide as the user interface is updated frequently by Microsoft.

  6. Search for the user you want to assign the role to and click on it, then click on Select

  7. On the main panel, click on Assign

  8. You will be redirected to the Users and groups panel, you will see the user you added.

  9. The user should have already the role Manage Licenses
