Log into the [3DEXPERIENCE platform](https://eu1.iam.3dexperience.3ds.com/). 2. Open the **Members Control Center** from the Platform Management Dashboard or 3DCompass app list (blue circle with play button in the top left). 3. Navigate to the **Configure Members Options** tab. 4. Under the **Invitations from Administrators** section, enable **Allow Administrators to Grant Roles without Assigning Automatically the Associated License**. **Note:** This setting must be enabled on both the Invitor's and Invitee's platforms. ### Step 2: Configure License Restrictions 1. The external user being invited should go to the **Invite and Grant Roles** tab in the **Members Control Center** on their platform. 2. Next to their name, click the **information icon**. 3. Disable **Restrict Usage to This Platform** for each license they wish to use on the Invitor’s platform. ### Step 3: Send the Invitation 1. The user inviting the external user should access the **Invite and Grant Roles** tab in the **Members Control Center** and select **Invite Members**. 2. Enter the external user's email address associated with their own 3DEXPERIENCE platform account. 3. Proceed to the **Roles** assignment section and assign the same roles that the external user has assigned to their acccount on their platform. 1. Example: If the invitee has **3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS Standard** on their platform, the Invitor should select this same role when inviting them. 4. Click **Next**, then **Send Invite**. **Tip:** If the correct license isn’t listed at first glance, check **Available Roles without any license** at the bottom of the page. After completing these steps, the external user should have access to your platform using their own license.
