Do I need an extra license for a second person to log in?

Summary

This article explains that each person who needs access to AIA Contract Documents must have their own subscription license. Single-user subscriptions allow only one login, while multi-user subscriptions require purchasing additional seats for each user. Sharing login credentials is not permitted. Instructions are provided for adding a second user through the Subscription Management page on aiacontracts.com.

 

Short Answer:

Yes, each person who needs to log in and access the system requires their own license (seat).

 

Details:

  • Each login is tied to a unique user/license.
    • If you want a second person to have their own login and access, you must purchase an additional seat for your subscription 

       

  • How to add a second user:
    • Go to My Account > Subscription Management on https://aiacontracts.com.
    • Use the Buy More Licenses option to purchase an extra seat for your subscription.
  • Once purchased, you can assign the new seat to the second person, who will then receive their own login credentials 

     

  • Single-user subscriptions only allow one login. Multi-user (multi-seat) subscriptions allow you to add more users as needed by purchasing additional seats
