Office 365 License Assignments may exceed available licenses and trigger a license purchase

No stops for increasing license costs

About a week, ago I noticed there was a change to the way Microsoft enforces their licenses. Administrators are now able to assign a license to a user, even if the tenant shows there are no more licenses of that type available. For some customers, this over assignment triggers a license purchase to bring the license count up to the required.

In Cayosoft Administrator we have added an option that will prevent the admin from assigning the next license if the available license count is zero.
