Thanks Juan.
I am aware that shared mailboxes don't have credentials. For the mailboxes that require credentials and delegated permissions I will be assigning a user license. For those that just require a mailbox that is under 50GB's I will configure a shared mailbox.
There might be a different management process for each one of those scenarios.
