After you assign a license for {% data variables.visual_studio.prodname_vss_ghe %} to a subscriber, the subscriber will use the {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %} portion of the license by joining an organization in your enterprise with a personal account on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}.

## About the calculation of consumed licenses
A person consumes a license for {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %} depending on specific criteria. If a user has not yet accepted an invitation to join your enterprise, or if the user is an unlinked {% data variables.visual_studio.prodname_vs_subscriber %}, the user still consumes a license.
