How does the Sharing of License between Tenant work and what are the possible errors?

Suppose when 2 Unattended licenses on Tenant 1 are already connected with Robots and if tried to connect Robots with other Tenant 2, then an error "There is no available runtime" is thrown.

So this shared concept will work when there are free licenses available in Orchestrator. For example: 1 UR is connected on Tenant 1 and 1 Unattended license is completely free, then that free license can be used to connect the other Robot on Tenant 2.
