Unused means the applicable user didn’t access any menu items with that license type in the fetch period. Clicking on a Role name, will open Assign users to roles form, thus enabling reviewer to see which other users have been assigned to the role with unused licenses as well. Select required highlight colour in field Background color for unused license fields on Visual tab in Insights for user access and security parameters to enable the colour highlights for unused licenses. In below example the selected user didn’t access any Operations licenses in the fetch period  |

| 20488 | Fetch interaction data from application Insights | Record count now included per task in Fetch’s batch job infolog.
