Editing custom license families

Custom license families can be edited by users with the License Manager role.

Note: Adjusting the risk profile for a license family will not change the calculated license risk for components on existing BOMs. Changes will only be reflected on project versions when the BOM is recalculated, such as during rescans or when assigning a scan to a project version.

To edit a custom license family:

  1. Log in to Black Duck with the License Manager role.

  2. Click > Licenses.

    The License Management page appears.

  3. Select the License family tab to display all license families.

    Edit Custom License Family dialog box
  5. Modify the information shown for this custom license family.
