Note: A warning icon appears next to the License button if the student is using an expired license or Support Package agreement, or if all of the available licenses and agreements are expired. If there are no available licenses to manage, the button turns gray and cannot be used.

In addition, each assignment that appears in the group view includes the following status information in the Assigned Products column:
New – The student has not started working on the component (this is different from 0%, where the student has actually started working on the component but has not yet completed 1%)
If the student has started working on the component, a completion status appears as follows:
The Fast ForWord components display a percent complete score for the component.
The ClearFluency component displays the total number of selections worked on out of the total number of selections in the library, for the current library only
components appear in red when their license or Support Package agreement has expired or has not yet started. Hold the cursor over the component name for details. For information on enabling those students to continue working, see Manage licenses for your students.
