Hot off the press!
Autodesk just dropped a new notifications feature to support their newly revamped Usage Reports. We are excited! Here's why you should be:
Primary admins are now able to be kept in the loop on a regular basis around which of their users are getting the maximum value out of their subscriptions and which get the chop (aka, unassigned, ready to be repurposed). It's all about keeping the vibe alive in the Autodesk Account and getting bang for your buck on those costly contracts. And here's the kicker – all the juicy details will be delivered straight to your inbox, at whatever frequency you need. Yes, we know your inbox is likely bursting at the seams, but it does save you from having to log back into the portal to generate reports on the fly.
Lets set up your notifications
-
First things first, log in to your Autodesk account at manage.autodesk.com.
-
Once you're in, head over to the 'Reporting' section and click on the new 'Usage Notifications'.
-
Now, in the Usage Notifications window, hit that "Set Up" button. Here's where the fun begins!
-
Choose your notification schedule:
- Pick a start date from the calendar for when you want those notification emails to kick off.
- Select how often you want to receive them – weekly, biweekly, monthly, or every three months.
-
Next up, select your inactive date range. Decide how far back you want to check for inactive users, whether it's the past month or even the past year.
-
Click "Turn On" and voilà! You're all set. A little message will pop up confirming that your inactive user notifications are now active.
To edit or turn off, simply head back to Usage Notifications and click edit, or switch the little toggle to the off position!
Just a quick FYI before we wrap up, usage notifications is only available for active subscriptions on a Standard or Premium plan. No Flex plans sorry...
