Per Seat; Seat license
Definition
A Seat is a User, except for Desktop Authority, for which a Seat is a Device. For Software licensed by this License Type, a license is required for (a) each User who has the ability to access, use, display, run, or otherwise interact with the Software on a shared device or in a virtualized or cloud environment and (b) for every single-user device on which the Software is installed. However, in no case shall a User require more than one license.
Counting rules
Count each User with the ability to access the Software on a shared device or in a virtualized or cloud environment, plus every single-user device with an installation; cap at one licence per User. Licences of departed employees or contractors, or of users whose access is permanently terminated and documented, may be re-allocated (Product Guide Part 1, Seat).
