# License Reservation

License Reservation is a feature where you can dedicate one or more user licenses to a specific use&#x72;**.** You can think of it as being a **permanent** member of a specific user feature.

![Example Diagram](/files/qIdGEkA91WUhOMl0h3SB)

The example diagram shows that we have:

* Two Playout licenses are available.
* Four users share the same Policy and User Group.

Depending on the example, the following conditions apply:&#x20;

* USER A can always have access to the Playout module.
* Since one Playout license is reserved for USER A, only one of the other users (USER B, C, D) will be allowed to use the Playout module at a time no matter the USER A is using the feature or not.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Reserving a license to a user alone doesn't mean that the user will have access to the feature automatically. Accessing a feature still needs to be configured through the Policies. Briefly, to access a specific user feature, your policy must allow you accordingly.
{% endhint %}

To reserve a license:

* Select a username from the All Users group.
* Go to the **Reserved Licenses** section inside the **Details Panel**.

You can also bulk-select licenses by clicking and holding the control button.&#x20;
{% endhint %}
