Approving Adobe order from the IT representative

Since the implementation of personalised licenses, users must be involved in ordering Adobe products and can no longer delegate this task entirely to the IT representative. This user guide will assist you in approving the order after it has been initiated by the IT representative.

 Note

Your computer must be connected to the data network of the University of Vienna or connected to it via VPN  in order for you to approve the order.
