About sublicensing

Parallels Mac Management for Microsoft SCCM licenses can be split into one or more subsets of licenses (hereafter referred to as sublicenses), each has its own license key and supports a certain number of Mac computers that you can manage in SCCM. Each sublicense has its own date of expiration.

Main license pool

In a subscription with no sublicenses, all product licenses remain in a single array, named the main license pool. After creating a sublicense, some licenses can be used via that sublicense, while other licenses still remain in the main license pool and can be distributed to other sublicenses or used for a product activation via the primary subscription license key.
