One warning on that though....group a will only be able to use the 2 that they are assigned....group b, if assigned to both groups will be able to use all 10, so it's possible that group b would be able to use all 10 and group a would be left without any....so you can't control group b to only use the 2 if noone else from a is around...

But you likely need two new groups to do it. Create two new groups, that we can call these two names: Floating_2 and Floating_8 Set each group to have access to the right number of licenses. Then... For the people who should only get to use the "Floating_2" license, make sure they are not also members of the "Floating_8" group. For the people who should be able to use all 10 license, then make sure they are a member of both groups. Now if you want to try to make sure the the "Floating_8" license are used first (by the people who are in both groups then I think you need to make sure that the 'Group ID' value for "Floating_8" is < (less than) the 'Group ID' value for "Floating_2". Hope that helps. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap.... Pick two.
