Settings

Click Edit to modify the fields in any of the sections of User Settings.

Note: You cannot edit certain parameters of users that originate from an LDAP directory service. These parameters are marked with an LDAP tag.

Licenses Section

Note: Licenses section is not available in BIMcloud Basic.

Each user working on the BIMcloud requires one BIMcloud User License, regardless of how many projects the user is joined into. The license is automatically reserved for each user when he/she opens a Teamwork project in ARCHICAD.

A BIMcloud User License remains automatically reserved until the user closes ARCHICAD, or goes offline for any reason.

Alternatively, an administrator can manually assign a license to the user: click Assign. A manually assigned BIMcloud User License remains assigned to the user even after the user closes all projects on the BIMcloud or goes offline.

https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/wp-content/uploads/bimcloud-help//UserLicenseAssign.png 

An Administrator can revoke this manually assigned license with the Revoke button. If available, an automatic license is then reserved for this user.

For general information, see The BIMcloud User License.

The icon shows the following:
