How do I return a single specific toolbox license so that someone else in my company can use it?

I would like to give up just my Parallel Computing Toolbox license. I no longer need it, but someone else in my company does. However, I don't want to give up my standard MATLAB license. These are not network licenses, each person is given one of the available licenses if they need MATLAB.

Mathworks Support can work with your license administration person to move the license.

If I recall correctly, you might need to be under support contract to be eligible to move the license. However, that depends in part on exactly how the license was registered.

That's what we figured. Was hoping there might be an easier way without having to contact support. Thank you!

If you are using a networked Group license, then the license can be moved to someone else by adjusting the group definitions.

If you are using a networked Floating license, then all that is required is that the new person can authenticate to the network license.

If you are using a Named User license, then Mathworks Support has to remove the toolbox from that license and add it to a different license, which is not something you can do yourself -- unless there is something I am overlooking about using Master Licenses.
