This article explains how seat assignment for {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} works in organizations and enterprises.
What is a {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} seat?
A {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} seat is a license to use {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %}, assigned to a unique user account through a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_business_short %} or a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} plan.
Users must be assigned a seat to access {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} features under an organization or enterprise plan
Seat assignment management
- Who assigns seats: Organization owners. Seats are assigned to specific user accounts. See AUTOTITLE.
- Where: Seat assignment can be managed in the {% data variables.product.github %} organization settings or via the REST API.
- If all assigned seats are removed, the organization's {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} plan is canceled.
- If a user with an active {% data variables.copilot.copilot_pro_short %} or {% data variables.copilot.copilot_pro_plus_short %} plan is assigned a seat in a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_business_short %} or {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} plan, their personal plan is automatically canceled, and a prorated refund for any remaining portion of their personal billing cycle is issued. The user will now use {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} under the organization's policies.
- If a single user receives a seat from multiple organizations within the same enterprise, the enterprise is only billed once per billing cycle for that unique user. One organization that assigned {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} to the user is chosen at random each month to be billed for the seat.
- If a user is assigned both a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_business_short %} and a {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} seat from different organizations within the same enterprise, only the {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} seat is billed. The charge is at the {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} rate from the time the {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} seat is assigned. The user will have access to the all the features and capabilities available under the {% data variables.copilot.copilot_enterprise_short %} plan.
