At the top of your Autodesk account you will see 2 tabs (Profile & management).
Under the tab "profile" you can edit the following data.

Assigning a Software Coordinator (optional)

If desired, a Software Coordinator can be assigned. A software Coordinator can be assigned per contract or by serial number. Your best option is to contact Cadac via our servicedesk. Call  +31 88 9322 333 or leave a message at https://www.cadac.store/en/service--contact/ You can adres which to which contract or serial number you want to assign a software coordinator.

Adding Users

In order to use the software, it needs to be assigned to users. These users need to be known to you or they can be created in the Autodesk account portal of the contract manager. Either wise the steps are the same.

Make an inventory of all the users that you want to assign which already have an Autodesk account. Collect these data from them:  

  • First and last name  
  • Email address  

To add the users:  

  • Click on the “management” tab on the user symbol.  
  • Go to “+ Add” and fill in the required info in the next pop-up screen.  
  • Check the “I’d like to add access to the user(s) now” box en save via “Save & continue”

The user will receive an activation mail with the message that a licence is assigned to him/her.

Note. Each user needs a private Autodesk account, so that the licence also end up in his/her own account. Where it is visible to download and install.

Adding Users

User access

To give users access to the products and Services that they are authorised to use, they need to be assigned to the right licence(s).

If you want to give users acces afterwards you need to click on “Edit Acces” next to the respective user.
