The number you enter has to be equal to or greater than your current number of activated users (formerly called active users). You can add new users to your deployment at any time. Every quarter, during the true-up review (section 3.5 License True-up Review of Software License Agreement, also referenced in docs), we check the license license seat count relative to number of activated users. If there's a difference, we'll provide you with a new invoice which is payable immediately.
