Tenant Name
When you set up your Office 365 subscription, you specify a tenant name in the form of name.onmicrosoft.com where name is the name you want to assign to your organization’s tenancy. This name has to be unique and no two organizations can share the same tenant name. The tenant name cannot be changed after you configure your Office 365 subscription. You can assign a domain name that you own to the tenant so that you don’t have to use the tenant name on a regular basis.
Tenant region
Tenant region determines which Office 365 services will be available to the subscription, the taxes that will be applied as a part of the subscription charges, the billing currency for the subscription, and the Microsoft datacenter that will host the resources allocated to the subscription.
Management Roles
■Global administrator: Office 365 users assigned this role have access to all administrative features. Users assigned this role are the only users able to assign other admin roles. More than one Office 365 user account can be assigned the global admin role. The first tenancy account created when you sign up for Office 365 is automatically assigned the global admin role. This role has the most rights of any available role.■Password administrator: Office 365 users assigned the password admin role are able to reset the passwords of most Office 365 user accounts, except those assigned the global admin, service admin, or billing roles. Users assigned the password admin role can reset the passwords of other users assigned the password admin role.
■Service administrator Office 365 users assigned the service admin role are able to manage service requests and monitor service health.
■User management administrator When assigned this role, users can reset passwords and monitor service health. They can also manage user accounts, user groups, and service requests. Users assigned this role are unable to delete accounts assigned the global admin role; create other admin roles; or reset passwords for users assigned the billing, global, or service admin roles.

Manage tenant subscriptions and licenses
You can manage Office 365 tenant subscriptions from the Subscriptions node, by clicking Billing node.When you are signed up to an Office 365 subscription that is not a trial subscription, you’ll also be able to view a node named Bills. You can use this node to review invoices by date.
Assigning licenses
Office 365 users require licenses to use Outlook, SharePoint Online, Skype for Business (formerly Lync Online), and other services. Users who have been assigned the global administrator or user management administrator roles can assign licenses to users when creating new Office 365 user accounts or can assign licenses to accounts that are created through directory synchronization or federation.
When a license is assigned to a user, the following occurs:
■An Exchange Online mailbox is created for the user.
■Edit permissions for the default SharePoint Online team site are assigned to the user.
■The user will have access to Skype for Business features associated with the license.
■For Office 365 ProPlus, the user will be able to download and install Microsoft Office
on up to five computers running Windows or Mac OS X.
You can assign a license to a user by editing the properties of the user. To do this, click "Edit a User"
from Office 365 Admin Center .
Select the user you want to assign a license to him, then click "edit" corresponding to "Product licenses"
You can a disable or enable license according the business need of each user.
Resolving license conflicts
License conflicts occur when you have assigned more licenses than you have purchased.
Methods that you can use to resolve this problem include:
■Purchasing more licenses This resolves the issue by ensuring that the number of licenses being consumed matches the number of licenses that have been purchased.
■Removing licenses from existing users You can resolve license conflicts by removing licenses from existing users so that the number of licenses being consumed matches the number of licenses that has been purchased.
■Deleting users In many cases, license conflicts occur because users who are no longer associated with the organization are still consuming licenses. Deleting these users from Office 365 will release the licenses assigned to these users.
