You need additional 10 Basic and 2 essential license to cover the number of devices installed in CUCM.You have 12 more days to resolve it, if you fail you cannot make any changes on the devices. if you remove the additional device, your warning will go.
once u get the license you can add these devices back to CUCM.
These kind of license issue will also arise when u don't associate the owner-ID with a device. if a user use multiple device without owner ID, the CUCM will count individual device license and won't use the Enhanced plus or CUWL license.

Owenr-ID is very much important for the proper utilization of License. in your case, you created jabber. may be you created the jabber for the same person who use desk phone. if you don't associate the owner-ID CUCM will consume license for both desk device(based on the models) and enhanced license for a Jabber. in that case your CUWL license will be unused. and the license requirement will be met by borrowing from upper tier.
as a workaround you can remove the devices which are showing none as there are not register with the CUCM. once you associated the owner-ID and make license utilization proper or adding the required licenses, you can add it back. make a note of the devices Mac which you are removing.

Devices consume licenses the moment they're configured, doesn't matter if they're registered or not, or if they never register. Similarly, you free up licenses the moment you delete a device.
Might want to reach out to a reputable consultant to get some assistance understanding how to handle this in the future and look at your configuration to see if licenses are being used properly with your current configuration or not.

Hi jaime
Still am confused , If i delete the unregistered IP Phone or NoNE status IP phones the licenses will free right??
I believe by deleting Unregistered phones my problem will solve.

if you delete a phone in CUCM, it will free up the license. irrespective of their registration status.
