# Check License and Access Status

{% hint style="info" %}
Access to BuildingPro Suites depends on the license status of the selected portfolio and tenant.
{% endhint %}

After you select a portfolio and open BuildingPro Suites, verify that access is available for that tenant.

## What to check

* In ABB Ability BuildingPro, make sure you are working in the correct portfolio.
* Open **BuildingPro Suites** from that portfolio.
* In BuildingPro Suites, review the license information under *Settings -> License*.
* If a license warning is shown, check the remaining time and coordinate the renewal in time.

## Typical user flow

* If a portfolio is already available to you, select it and open BuildingPro Suites from there.
* If no portfolio is available yet, create a portfolio first and then open BuildingPro Suites.
* If the selected tenant has valid access, you can continue with user invitations, roles, assets, and data onboarding.

## If access is not available

If the BuildingPro Suites entry is not available for the selected portfolio, or if the license has expired, the administrator must assign, renew, or purchase the required license before work can continue in that tenant.

For details about the license view and expiry warnings in BuildingPro Suites, see [↗ License](/collection/mandatory-base/platform-core/governance-and-monitoring/license.md) and [↗ License is expiring](/collection/mandatory-base/platform-core/governance-and-monitoring/license/license-is-expiring.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/getting-started/1.-create-users-and-tenants/check-license-and-access-status.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
