Expiry date calculation works by verifying the individual expiry date for all valid licenses and then picking the lowest expiry date. After the date of the earliest expiring license, all calculations will be updated without that license, by selecting the next earliest date. ### License violation notifications The following events occur when a license expeires and is not renewed within two weeks. - After 2 weeks of the expiry date administrators see a warning banner on the Admin interface - After another 2 weeks, users get a warning banner - After another 2 weeks, the authentik Enterprise instance becomes “read-only” ### About users and licenses License usage is calculated based on total user counts and log-in data data that authentik regularly captures. This data is checked against all valid licenses, and the sum total of all users. - The **_default user_** count is calculated based on actual users assigned to the organization. - The **_external user_** count is calculated based on how many external users were active (i.e. logged in) since the start of the current month. :::info An **internal** user is typically a team member, such as company employees, who gets access to the full Enterprise feature set. An **external** user might be an external consultant or a B2C customer who logged onto your website to shop.
