I'm not sure of the Order, but Remedy will check if a user is a member of a
group with reserved floating, so in the case of user being a member of A and
B, but A's are all used, but B's are not...they would use B's before going
to the general pool, but I agree with everyone else...if you want A to only
be able to use 10 and everyone else use the other 30...then it's an A
reserve group and a NotA reserve group....

Subject: Re: Group Form, Floating Licenses Field

Shawn,

On 6.0 (assume same as 6.3), my understanding:

Like L.J. said, if no one from Group A is logged in, the 10 are simply
unusable by anyone.

If you want to disallow Group A from using MORE than 10, you'll need to
assign the others licenses to another group/groups.

I don't know what happens when person is in 2 different groups that have
reserved licesnes - maybe the docs address that.
