Question

Do you mean all the documents mentioned above are for MAK of Windows 11 Enterprise as in my first question or other additional licenses we should have? 

Answer 1

Hi Thai, Bui Nhu, I'm Henry and I'm following your recent questions and they seem to relate to the same issue, so I would like to give an all-in-one clarification on this thread.

First, let’s break it down clearly:

For Windows 10/11 Enterprise MAK License (Qty: 4000):

• Proof of Purchase / Invoices: Original purchase records from Microsoft or authorized resellers.
• Volume Licensing Agreements: Copies of our Microsoft Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC) agreements and entitlement records.
• Activation Records: Logs showing how many MAK activations have been used versus our entitlement.
• Deployment Documentation: Records of where and how licenses are deployed across company devices.
• Software Asset Management (SAM) Report: Internal reports demonstrating proactive compliance and license tracking.

For Additional Licenses: If we are using other Microsoft products (e.g., Office, SQL Server, Exchange, CALs), we must also maintain equivalent documentation for those licenses. Audits typically cover all Microsoft software in use, not just Windows.

So, my best advice is to keep these records organized and up to date, we can demonstrate compliance quickly and effectively during any audit. . I hope you find this answer helpful and vote it by hitting “Accept Answer” 🙂.

Answer 2

The documents mentioned above provide an overview of various licensing options for Windows 11, including Windows 11 Enterprise E3 and E5. These licenses are part of Microsoft's Commercial Licensing offerings and are not specifically tied to a Multiple Activation Key (MAK) but rather to subscription-based licensing models.

Windows 11 Enterprise E3 and E5 are designed for larger organizations and come with different features and capabilities. The documents detail the specific rights and features associated with each licensing option, which may include advanced security, device management, and cloud capabilities. Therefore, if you are considering Windows 11 Enterprise, you would need to evaluate which license best fits your organization's needs rather than assuming all documents pertain to a MAK license.
