# How to configure licensees for resale

This tutorial describes how SoftwareOne partners can set up resale licensees.

You must mark a licensee for resale if you want to order products for resale instead of your own consumption.

### Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have account administrator permissions. Only admins can create new licensees.
