When a customer completes an order for a team license product, DDLS automatically handles the entire license and team setup.

Customer-Side Feature

The Automatic Process #

When a WooCommerce order is placed and payment is confirmed, the following happens automatically in this order:

• (‘ol’, ‘DDLS creates a license as it normally does for any licensed product. This is standard DDLS behavior.’)

• (‘ol’, ‘Team Management detects the new license via the dmsilm_license_created action hook.’)

• (‘ol’, ‘The license type is set to “team” in the DDLS license database.’)

• (‘ol’, ‘The seat count is applied – The seat tier the customer selected at checkout is read from the order item metadata and written to the license record.’)

• (‘ol’, ‘The purchaser is added as Team Admin – The customer\’s WordPress user ID is linked to the license as the first team member with the “admin” role. The seats_allocated counter is incremented to 1.’)

• (‘ol’, ‘A welcome email is sent to the purchaser.’)

What the License Record Looks Like After Purchase #

In your DDLS license database, the license will have:

• license_type = “team”
• seat_count = the number of seats the customer purchased (0 = unlimited)
• seats_allocated = 1 (the purchaser)

What the Customer Sees #

After purchase, the customer logs into their account and navigates to the customer portal. They see:

• My Team – Shows them as the only member, with the “Team Admin” role
• Invite Member – Ready to start inviting colleagues
• Usage Report – Shows their own usage (empty initially)

Nothing Manual Required #

The entire process is automatic. You do not need to take any action to provision a team license after a purchase. The customer can immediately begin inviting their team.
