Managing licenses
A license is required to authenticate a user's identity. It ensures an environment's security and assures that an authorized user only handles the license. To reach the license section, you need to follow specific steps:
- Navigate to "System" on the navigation bar.
Select the license option on the sidebar, and the main product information page will open before you.
In this chapter, we are going to cover the license details, which are as follows:
License information
License Fields | Description |
|---|---|
Product name | It provides the name of the particular product in use |
Product version | This specifies the version of the particular product |
Installation date | This specifies the date on which the installation of that product is done |
License type | The type of license been used by the user is according to the product specified |
Expiry date | The expiry of the product license is mentioned here |
Total licensed users | The number of units consumed by a particular licensed product |
Adding a license
One can add a license by clicking on the "+ License" button.
A form will appear in front of you with the system id generated automatically by the system.
You should now specify your license key. The license key code should be sent to you by tech support by mail.
In return, the support team will provide you with the code you need to submit in the aforementioned "form" to have a licensed product assigned.
Click on the "Submit" button.
To track the changes in the license, go to System → License. Click on the Action button and select View Trail. Here, you will get detailed information about when and by whom the license is added or updated.
Once the license is expired, the end users for product types other than Perpetual will not be able to use the Sectona services.
