Licensing for Microsoft Syntex

Microsoft Syntex uses pay-as-you-go licensing for new and renewing customers. With pay-as-you-go, you can use Syntex without any license commitment or upfront purchasing. Any user in your organization can use Syntex services and only pay if and when services are used.

Pay-as-you-go requires an Azure subscription. Pay-as-you-go services are billed based on the type and number of transactions. For information about how to set up pay-as-you-go, see Configure Microsoft Syntex for pay-as-you-go billing.

Before you configure pay-as-you-go, read the Microsoft Syntex pay-as-you-go terms of service.

Напомена

Microsoft Syntex is an add-on and requires users also to have a license for Microsoft 365.

Напомена

For Government Community Cloud (GCC) organizations, pay-as-you-go licensing—and the services that require pay-as-you-go licensing—are not yet available. GCC organizations can continue to purchase and use per-user licenses until pay-as-you-go becomes available.

Included features

Pay-as-you-go licensing includes access to additional content management features. You won't be charged on a pay-as-you-go basis when you use these features. These features include:

• Content query
• Universal annotations
• Contracts management accelerator
• Accounts payable accelerator
• Taxonomy features (including import using SKOS, SKOS formatting reference, push content type to hub, and term store reports)
• PDF merge and extract pages
• Content processing rules (including rules to move or copy a file and to set a content type)

If you still have active per-user licenses

As of July 1, 2023, per-user licenses are no longer available for purchase. Per-user licenses purchased prior to that date can still be assigned to new users. After existing per-user licenses expire, you'll need to opt in to pay-as-you-go billing to continue using Microsoft Syntex services.

Users with active per-user licenses can perform the following tasks:

• Apply an unstructured document processing model to a library. (Unlicensed users can be granted access to a content center and can create models there, but can't apply them to a document library.)
• Create a prebuilt, structured, or freeform document processing model via the entry point in a library.
• Upload content to a library where a custom model has been applied.
• Run an unstructured document processing model on-demand.
• Create a modern template with content assembly.
• Generate a document from a modern template.
• Use of content query to search for metadata.
• Use of annotations to add notes and comments.
• Use of premium taxonomy services. (Premium taxonomy services comprise SKOS-based term set import, pushing enterprise content types to hub-associated sites, and term store reports.)
• Use the document library rules to move or copy content.
• Merge and extract PDFs
