Update a license assigned to a user to add more enabled plans
Hello, So i need to update licencing for a list of users who migh have some plans disabled. The users have E3/E5 with only EXO enabled. I need to enable all those other disabled plans, teams to be ...
Reflecting on Harm_Veenstra's first post, if you have more than a handful of users, you're better off:
- Adopting a group-based licencing model; then
- Confirm the users are receiving the group-assigned licencing; then
- Remove the directly-assigned licencing (starting with individuals before moving to an automated, batch-processing approach.)
Continuing with the current direct assignment model only ensures this problem will come up again in the future.

Hello Harm_Veenstra
Thank you for your reply.
The thing is that the users already have a licence assigned directly to them.
Is there a way to assign the license again with all apps included for all users wirth powershell? I want to make sure all users have all apps and it seems that some doesn't.
The licenses are Office 365 E3 and Office 365 E5.
Thank you.
For the licensed groups, that doesn't matter but.. You don't have P1 for the users, so that's not an option...
