    Remove a user from the list of named users. Perform the following steps:

    1. Locate the user from the Named Users list that you want to remove.

    2. Click the Menu icon menu_icon next to the name of the user, and then click Remove.

    3. Click Remove on the Remove named user dialog box to complete the action.

    Remember:

    • When the Disable automatic self-acquisition of named user licenses option is cleared, and if the user who is removed from the Named Users list tries to perform any project operation, then the name of the user is added back to the list. The name of the user is added only if sufficient licenses are available.

    • When the Disable automatic self-acquisition of named user licenses option is selected and you remove the user from the Named Users list, then the following operations are impacted by the user who is removed from the list:

      • The test runs scheduled by the user might fail to run.

      • The test results which are in progress by the user might fail to record complete details.

      • The user cannot perform any of the future project operations that includes generation of offline token that are used for long-run tests.

      If the user is currently on HCL OneTest™ Server, then the license can be used while the current session remains active.
    Replace a user in the list of named users. Perform the following steps:
