When a subscriber no longer requires a Visual Studio subscription, such as when they leave the company, complete a project, or switch to a new job role, you can remove their subscription and assign it to someone else. Please note that when you reassign a subscription, the subscriber benefits will not be reset. The new user will be able to claim any unclaimed keys and view previously claimed keys but claim limits are **not** reset.
