The Persona menu allows a user to see information about their Nova settings, their account, language and chosen color scheme. It also shows the current role and organization, and allows a user to switch to other roles and other organizations.
To access the Persona menu a user clicks on their name at the top right of the Nova user interface, and the menu will appear:
If a new role or organization is selected the user interface will switch, and jump to that chosen role and organization. For more on roles, click here.
Nova remembers which tenant and role a user was last using, so the next time that user logs into Nova it takes the user back to the same place. This happens across browsers, and across sessions.
Sometimes when you log in to Nova, you may not see quite what you expect. For example, you may see users listed on the Users page that you do not immediately recognize.
If this happens, you will want to check your Persona Menu. It could be that the last time you logged in, you switched your role, or switched your organization, or switched your role and organization. Nova remembers those changes between sessions.
The subscriptions overview page allows you to get an overview of licenses which are consumed in an organization, and gives you the ability to configure price information so you can determine the cost of licensing to your organization. This includes licenses which are assigned, unassigned and are idle.
For more clarification on what total, assigned and unassigned units are:
·Total: Currently enabled licenses + suspended licenses
·Assigned licenses: Licenses consumed by users
·Unassigned licenses: Total number of licenses - assigned licenses
The dashboard provides an overview of licenses that are being used in the tenant. This includes a total cost of all licenses being used, including total costs of unused and idle licenses. You can download this chart in a .csv format, or filter the chart by organization and/or organization group.
The table provides information on each license, including the percentage of licenses used, how many licenses there are and how many have been assigned, unassigned or are remaining idle.
The price associated with each license can be changed by clicking on it and entering the number.
