Combining Multi-seat licenses

[munsellh]

We currently have multiple multi-seat licenses, each with a different serial number, in out office. Is it possible to combine the multiple multi-seat licenses we have into one serial number?

If we can, what is involved and dose it cost anything?

Your reseller can help you out with that. At my last company we combined all
of our single-seats into one serial number. I don't THINK it cost anything
but if it did it wasn't much.

Like Lance stated. It can be done, you need to contact your reseller and
there is a cost. We had to pay a one time fee to go multiseat standalone.

Yea, I can't imagine there not being a fee.

If Autodesk has something that you need and they are the
only ones who have it, it's not going to be free.

I think we avoided the cost by doing it at the time of the subscription
contract renewal.

same way here, we did it at renewal time and no charge, actually our vendor
call and asked if he could do it so it would be easier for both of us now
and in the future.

Well, according to my reseller, since I am only combining the same type of licenses (multi-set standalone), that there was no fee. According to them, If I was adding single seats to the multi-seat there would be a small fee and If I was converting them to network there would be a fee. But since they are all the same type and I’m just combining them, there is no fee involved.

To add to the what the OP said:

"If I was converting them to network there would be a [HUGE] fee."

About $1,000.00 or more to upgrade from standalone to network...

We have 75 seats total in office, some are network some are MSSA. we have been upgrading a handful a year to network as we can afford it, it isnt cheap.
