Modules & add-ons

Uslimato is modular. One core module is always active; further modules and add-ons can be switched on per tenant. In module management you see what is available, active or still planned.

#Core module: asset management

Asset management is the core module and always active – devices, software licenses and assignments. Everything else builds on top of it.

#Understanding module status

Every module carries a clear status so admins know where they stand:

StatusMeaningWhat you can do
ActiveEnabled and usable for your tenantGet started right away
Not licensedAvailable, but not booked for your planUpgrade the plan
PlannedIn development, not yet availableWait for a release

Which modules exist at all, and what they are for, is covered in What is Uslimato?.

#Managing modules

Under Settings › Module management you get an overview of all modules and add-ons. The core module is locked ("core module – always active"); optional modules can be activated as long as they are licensed for the plan.

#Activating a module

  1. Open Settings › Module management
  2. Pick the module from the list
  3. Click Activate – a greyed-out entry means your plan lacks the license
  4. Its menu entries appear immediately for every role that is permitted to see them

Who may activate a module is governed by roles – see Multi-tenancy & roles.

Tip
If a module isn't activated, the app hides its functions instead of throwing errors – so you can switch modules on and off safely.
