AHS Microsoft 365 Licenses In 2023, Microsoft 365 introduced a new licensing model to AHS. Information Workers with assigned computers (i.e., admin) will receive full access to the MS 365 license package, while Deskless Workers will have access to web-based apps only. Currently, 80% of AHS staff are Deskless Workers, and 20% have dedicated devices. Web-based access limitations mean certain documents (e.g., fillable forms, advanced Excel spreadsheets, macros) will not be compatible for Deskless Workers. |
