Licenses can differ from each other depending on how they provide access (1) and to which features they provide access (2)
(1) Way of access
(2) Level of access
- Business: Basic features
- Designer: Basic + some expert features
- Expert: Baisc + all expert features
Your company account (or organisation)
-
You can think of this as your private library. Many expert features, such as adding private data, or adding private classifcations are hosted here.
-
“Private” means that not all users on One Click LCA can see this, but all users added to the company account can. The “main user(s)” additionally have the right to approve private data after its creation, thereby enabling it to be used by all users on the account.
-
To find your company account, in the top ribbon bar, either click on your name, or on the first line you see when opening the “License” tab.
- If you have a Business license, you might not have a company account yet, but you can create one yourself (see here), to use features such as choosing favourite materials.
