Which users are billable?

This article explains how payment and licensing work in GpsGate for billing purposes. You'll find out which users affect your monthly GpsGate costs and how to see such users.

How to check your current usage

You can easily check your monthly consumption in Server Administration. Log in to an application and go to Server Administration → Server → License to see how many billable devices you have.mceclip0.png

Which users are billable?

In GpsGate, payment is defined by the average number of devices tracked throughout the month. Read more details about billing FAQ here.

If you own the legacy licensing system, licences are consumed by tracked units (shown as devices on the License tab).

The Unit role

Trackable assets require the role _Unit, which also contains the privilege _DeviceLogin.

Admin → Roles → 3. PrivilegesLogin → _DeviceLogin

Note: you will not be able to track your units if this role or privilege is deactivated.

Using the User Search tool option, Show only paid, allows you to see which units are suitable for billing or, in the case of Legacy licences, which ones use one.

FAQ

To free a licence for the legacy model, is it necessary to remove the user?

It's not necessary to remove the user. If this vehicle is no longer in operation, you can disable the role _Unit from the user, by editing it. Remember, unchecking this role, makes the unit untraceable on the map and the tracking data won't be saved on the user.
