You're mixing sales bundles with technical licenses. The Knowledge Management Specialist user bundle contained the entitlement to perform RKM administrator and analysis on RKM 7.5 and earlier. It had a pre-requisite of owning the Service Management Specialist license user bundle which contained the entitlement to SRM as an administrator/analyst as well as the AR System user license (and entitlement to use it).
The RKM Specialist user bundle was made obsolete with the release of 7.6.0x. In 7.6.0x, the RKM user bundle described below is what powers and entitles the use of Remedy Knowledge Management 7.6.0x and later. -David J.

David Thanks. I guess my confusion is the old version of RKM and the current one. I saw that we own 7 of something called a knowledge management specialist floating add on license. So I am trying to understand what licenses (other then AR or ITSM) are needed for the 5 different roles that use 7.6.4 RKM. For example does the knowledge viewer part of this RKM bundle? I tried to find some doc that spells this out, but with no luck. So I you know of something please point it out. Take care and thanks Hbr Sent from one of Howard's iPads On Jan 16, 2013, at 2:57 PM, "Easter, David" <david_eas...@bmc.com> wrote: > Hi Howard, > > No user licenses come with the module.
