Allow Simultaneous Access in ARPs

Question

Can anyone explain to me the real impact of the "Allow Simultaneous Access" checkbox that appears on the Access Request Policy of type RDP Session? 
 For instance, if I set the "Maximum Users at One Time" value to 10, does it mean that only 10 users are allowed to access the assets defined in this RDP? What happens to the 11th user?

Yes that is correct , the limit means only 10 users can create an Access Request for the same Asset \ Account in SPP 
 If the 11th user tries to make a new access request while the existing 10 users have active access requests to the same Asset and Account then the 11th user will not be able to make that request and will instead get a message to that affect that the Asset & account aren't available. 
 As per the Admin guide: 
 " Select this check box to allow multiple users access to the accounts and assets governed by this policy. Use the next check box to identify how many users can have access at once."
