PowerBuddy allotments
All PowerSchool products with PowerBuddy integrations share a usage allotment for all of the PowerBuddy features within those products.
For example, in Performance Matters, PowerBuddy for Assessment uses one allotment each time you generate or regenerate item content. In Schoology, PowerBuddy for Learning uses one allotment each time you generate content for an assignment or discussion.
Districts must use their usage allotments by June 30th. Unused allotments do not roll over.
For example, if a district has one PowerBuddy product and an allotment bank set to 3,000,000, then the allotment distribution on July 1st would be 3,000,000.
After July 1st, if that district had used 1,000,000 allotments, added another PowerBuddy product, and purchased another 3,000,000 allotments, then the district allotment balance would be 5,000,000.
Designated district contacts will receive email notifications when allotments reach low thresholds and when there are no remaining allotments.
PowerBuddy features will become inactive if the usage allotment reaches zero.
