Moving from shared computer activation, to device based licensing (under EES)

[localzuk]

We have just moved from CSP and OVS-ES to an EES agreement, and one aspect of that is moving from shared computer activation to device based licensing.

 

Is there a simple way for us to roll out the change in license type? Without needing to reinstall Office?

I've no experience of the process, but maybe the scripts mentioned here to reset the shared licenses on devices: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/troubleshoot/activation/reset-office-365-proplus-activation-state

 

Then the steps to add devices to a group, assign licenses and then use GPO to set existing installations to use the new licensing method? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365-apps/licensing-activation/device-based-licensing
