Setting up site licensing and optional modules

Licensing is applied to an application database, while optional modules are enabled for specific sites. If you have multiple sites in one application database, you apply licensing in one site in the database, and then use the Optional Modules form in each of the sites in the database to enable the features for licensed modules in that site.

  1. Perform these steps at each site. Alternatively, if you are using intranet licensing, perform these steps only at the master site.
    1. In the License Management form, select the Apply License tab.
    2. Paste your license document into the License Document field. You can cut and paste the information from the license document into this field, or you can click Browse and select the document from your drive. The document is encrypted and every character counts, so if you copy and paste, ensure that you copy the entire contents of the document.
    3. Click Apply License.

      Any previous licensing that you had for this site is deleted and replaced with the licensing defined in the new license document.

      The Licensed Modules tab should show information about your licensed modules after you apply your license.

      The Multi-Session Users tab lists any multi-session users defined by your license; generally this just displays the SL_Internal user.

      For information about this user and about how concurrent or named user licensing works, see the Infor SyteLine Licensing Administration Guide.

  2. At each site, use the Optional Modules form to enable the optional modules that you want to be active in that site.
    For example, you might have a site where the Mexico Country Pack is enabled and another site where the France Country Pack is enabled.
