My company is in the process of hiring a WebFOCUS contractor and we would like some licensing clarification. We are currently using the three developer studio licenses that we purchased but we still have 5 managed reporting developer licenses. Would one of those suffice for a contractor to come in and develop reports or modify a dashboard?
I general the best and only recommended way to get licensing information is thru IBI. I will say that an MRE Developer does not have the necessary role to administor a dashboard.
Donald, you just set up your contract developer as an MRE user of 'admin' class, with admin rights to all the domains. And you're good to go. An admin user can log in to dashboard as well. Any doubts at all, best to just contact your local sales office. but you should be just fine.

The role of user that you are allowed to assign is defined by your license aggreement. Say you purchased 5 administrator licenses and 3 developer and 7 analical and 100 cus(general user) then you only have that # of roles to work with you cannot assign everyone a admin role without violating you MLA.
