Viewing the license usage reports


The BMC Helix Business Workflows licensing model tracks the number of unique users who have created cases in the application for a month. As an administrator, analyze the number of active users (case requesters) in a line of business in the Active User License Usage report in BMC Helix Dashboards.

This report helps you make sure that you are compliant with the license agreement you signed with BMC Software. Additionally, monitor whether you overutilize or underutilize the licenses for BMC Helix Business Workflows.
