# Assign Permission Sets and Permission Set Licenses

To use Communications, Media, and Energy features, assign permission sets and permission set licenses to your users.

![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ind-comms_media_energy_managed-264-0-0-production-enus/ff4079f6-a384-475c-b863-578bbbb0ef9b/images/icon_note.png)

Note Users Migrating from Managed Package License to Permission Set License: To access all industry features, the managed package license is sufficient. However, to restrict the user's functionality, use the permission set license. Also, assigning a permission set license overrides the managed package license for ‌accessibility features. Therefore, you can assign ‌ related permission sets to provide access to specific functionality.

When you assign permission sets to a user, Salesforce automatically assigns the corresponding permission set licenses too. However, if you assign a permission set license, you must manually assign the equivalent permission sets. To ease the transition to permission set licenses, we recommend that you:

- Categorize your users based on their persona.
- Identify and customize the permission sets for each persona.
- Assign these customized permission sets to your users.
