Operations & Administration (Control)
Subscription & activation
ForAdministrationOperator
Every organisation books exactly what it needs: individual building blocks, individual features or everything. Seats and billing monthly or yearly, changes immediately and pro rata; features that are not booked show a calm activation card instead of an error.
Why#
Not every institution needs everything. Whoever only wants group work books only group work; whoever grows adds features without renegotiating. A single source decides what is enabled — pages, interfaces and background jobs all follow it.
How it works#
- 1Administration: open “Subscription & features” (address /admin/abo).
- 2Choose building blocks — “Build & learn courses” is always included. “Everything” selects all building blocks. Under “More features individually” (expand) are features available without the whole building block; anything already in a chosen building block is not listed there.
- 3Whatever a feature needs is added automatically and named on the right; whoever deselects something sees what goes with it.
- 4Set seats and billing (monthly or yearly). On the right are the total and — for a running subscription — the pro-rata amount for the rest of the period.
- 5“Subscribe” leads to checkout; the first subscription starts with a trial. For a running subscription, “Apply change”: added features are enabled after payment, removed ones are credited pro rata.
- 6Below: next invoice, invoices as PDF, payment method and billing address, grants and “Cancel subscription” (at the end of the period, can be undone until then).
- 7Wherever a feature that is not booked appears in the product, a card shows its benefit in one sentence; administrators see the price and “Enable now”, everyone else only that their organisation can enable the feature.
Settings and switches#
No switch of its own in the feature catalogue — the feature belongs to its surroundings.
- Applies only to organisations switched to the subscription; all others keep their switches as before.
- Whoever was there before the switch keeps everything they use (grandfathering).
- The tenant switch can still turn a booked feature off — but cannot turn anything on beyond what is booked.
If a payment is outstanding#
- Everything keeps running until the end of the grace period; the page names the date.
- After that, creating and managing are read-only: content stays visible, changes are blocked.
- Learning always remains possible — courses, quizzes, exams, credentials.
- After a cancellation everything booked is read-only. Nothing is deleted.
Who may do what#
- The organisation's administration books, changes and cancels the subscription and sees invoices and prices.
- The operator grants pilot customers and trials in the cockpit /admin/abo-betrieb.
- Everyone else only sees, at a feature not booked, that their organisation can activate it — without prices.
Tips#
- If a payment is outstanding, everything keeps running at first. After that, creating and managing are read-only; learners keep learning, and no data is lost.
- The operator grants pilot customers and trials of individual features in the cockpit /admin/abo-betrieb — with an end date or without.
