Renewal planning signal
Licensed users with no recent sign-in history need owner review before cleanup or renewal assumptions are made.
01/ Review questions
What licensing review answers.
The review does not replace procurement. It gives procurement and IAM better questions.
User utilizationLicensed users with no sign-in history, stale lifecycle state, or cleanup signals.
App usageAssigned apps, sensitive apps, low-use patterns, and access-review overlap.
Agreement contextCustomer-provided renewal terms, SKU notes, and planning assumptions when supplied.
Action pathQuestions for IAM, finance, procurement, security, and leadership review.
02/ Evidence inputs
What improves the licensing analysis.
Observed Okta state is useful. Customer agreement context makes the review sharper.
| Input | Use |
|---|---|
| Okta snapshot | Users, groups, app assignments, lifecycle signals, and available sign-in context. |
| Customer agreement context | Current SKU list, renewal date, usage assumptions, or procurement questions when supplied. |
| Business notes | Known exceptions, inactive populations, merger/migration context, and review owners. |
| Report scope | Whether licensing is a high-level signal review or a deeper analysis in the SOW. |
03/ Report handoff
Licensing signals become reviewable report artifacts.
- High-level utilization and cleanup themes.
- Objects or populations that need owner review.
- Manual recommendations before renewal decisions are made.
04/ Outputs
What the report can include.
Cleanup candidates
Dormant users, stale assignments, and access-review overlaps.
Utilization signals
Observed usage patterns that may support renewal planning.
Manual recommendations
Steps your team can validate before changing license or access strategy.
Scope note
Licensing review is not legal, procurement, or vendor-negotiation advice. It packages observed Okta signals and customer-provided context so your team can validate renewal, cleanup, and roadmap decisions.
