Endpoint reallocation and Office ProPlus
So in a perfect IT world one would assume an asset would get wiped prior to being redeployed to an end user, ie fresh & clean box (well on the inside)...but what happens if you need to redeploy a box...

let me clarify with two scenarios...
1)
User A leverages computer 1. User A is promoted to a new role at another spot that warrants a new device (ie laptop). Computer 1 is then reassigned to User B (User A's replacement). How does the endpoint know to reassign the license to User B, or is that manual due to User A still having a valid license? How have others solved this
2)
User A leverages computer 1. User A employment is now terminated. User B (User A's replacement) is issued Computer 1. How does the endpoint know to reassign the license to User B?

so got some clarity on this from MS...after 30 days, the box will auto switch (if you have ADFS) over to the new owner...
