* When the automatic assignment is disabled, users are granted a temporary two-week license. Administrators can use this grace period to assign a permanent license manually to the user (see below). Without a permanent license, users lose access to the organization after two weeks.

In the example above:
* The first two users have access to the Inspections license. Remember that the Inspections license also includes the Standard license.
* Next three users have the Standard license.
* Next three users currently don't have a license, but if the automatic assignment of licenses is enabled, they will receive the necessary license when they synchronize their apps with the server (as long as there are free licenses available).
* The user Roland currently does not have a license. The Inspections license is also disabled for this user; i.e., when using automatic assignment, he can only claim a Standard license.
* The last user has all licenses disabled and cannot benefit from automatic license assignment.

* '''Assigned''' / '''Enabled''': Users with this license state are able to synchronize, access CRM by using Resco Mobile CRM application.
 
The license selector can take three states:
* '''Assigned''' / '''Enabled''': Users with this license state are able to synchronize, access the backend by using [[Resco mobile apps]].
* '''Disabled''': Users with this license state cannot synchronize (receives error “LICENSE: NOT FOUND”).
* '''Disabled''': Users with this license state cannot synchronize (receives error “LICENSE: NOT FOUND”).
* '''Unassigned''' / '''Pending''': User gets into pending state, when the Auto Assign licenses functionality in Woodford’s Setup is disabled, so licenses are assigned only manually. In this case, when a user synchronizes the Mobile CRM app for the first time (or previously used it, but was deleted from the Mobile Users), they get a temporary license, that’s valid for two weeks. During this time administrator can decide whether to assign a license to this user or not. After two weeks, when the temporary license expires, user receives an error “LICENSE: EXPIRED” and is no longer able to synchronize.

If you want to manage licenses manually and decide in advance who can synchronize using mobile CRM app and who cannot, you need to grant licenses and disable users in advance.
