I've got a customer on 12.5 UCCX with Flex licensing and I'm not seeing that 
behavior.  Only when someone logs in to Finesse does it increase counters on 
the licensing page in UCCX.

Thanks for the action and the update.  Is the Flex PM, Kevin McPartlan, on that 
webcast?

I’m on a partner webcast now and asking about this. If you have premium flex 
licensing even the built-in admin requires a license!  I’m beating them up on 
this as it’s still not documented anywhere and I’ve got customers on flex that 
will have issues when upgrading to 12.5

Thank you for the testing you're doing, and I look forward to the results.

So I was basing this on documentation and my colleague saying we were good 
after our admin account was de-supervisored

However I am seeing contrary information in the one 12.5 install we have. CCX 
doesn’t have an auto update button/function so I’m waiting for things to cycle 
to verify

Further though the documentation does not say this at all:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cust_contact/contact_center/crs/express_12_5/features/guide/uccx_b_125features-guide/uccx_b_125features-guide_chapter_0111.html

Nor the ordering guide (partners only): 
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/customer-collaboration/guide-c07-741219.html

And that is some garbage if true and needs to be fixed.

Matthew,

I just got word from the Flex-CC owner, Kevin McPartlan, that Admins do require 
a Premium license.  Can you prove this wrong in some way?

A-FLEX-CC has Standard and Premium Licenses.

These are different from non flex licensing.

Standard is inbound agent licensing essentially

Premium is supervisor licensing,   email/chat agents, outbound campaign 
licensing.

2 CTI ports per agent/license.

Admin still works no specific license needed as long as admin isn’t also 
supervisor/agent, HA is included, outside of the 3 features above, it’s like 
perpetual premium with SQL, etc included.

See here for specifics:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/unified-communications/cisco-collaboration-flex-plan/datasheet-c78-741220.html
 Table 8.


License enforcement is only in UCCX 12.5. Older versions don’t know and you end 
up with Perpetual Premium with HA feature set but with a license that expires 
at the end of your contract term.

Suffice it to say if you don’t need 12.5 features you could ride the gravy 
train for a while.

Licensing is still concurrent users.

There are grace periods so if you need to test something you can make the admin 
a supervisor or something w/o breakage, just remember to remove later.

If your customer has on-prem premium, with perpetual trade-in credits you are 
close to the cost of SWSS and should probably try and get them to move.

But seriously, a premium license to administer the system?  Does this include 
the appadministrator account too?  Do you have first hand experience with it?

Pretty sure when buying as A-Flex-CC that it always just gives you Premium 
licensing on the CCX side.  Had this cause an issue with a customer that was 
staying on Enhanced for the extra CTI ports for many years.

All,

Anyone already deal with this themselves?  I am reading/being told something I 
cannot swallow as the truth, because it seems so ridiculous.

I am being told that you need a Premium license to even login as a Supervisor 
at all.  Like, not for extra functionality (silent monitoring), but just as a 
basic license requirement to even sign in.

Also, I am being told a Premium license is required for Administrative users 
too.  Like, even the app admin account.  So what, completing a fresh install 
now requires a Premium license?

Are either of these true?  Can you confirm from your own tests that this is in 
fact how Flex works in UCCX on-prem?
