    • License Usage Monitoring

    The License Usage dialog provides a real-time data on how many standalone or cloud licenses are in use and who are the users. Not applicable for FlexLM licenses which are managed on an on-premise license server.

    Each application only displays their own relevant usage record for all users, even if multiple applications use the same license code.

    I.e. to fully understand how your users utilize a Bundle license, you need to review each of the applications.

    In addition, the License Ownership list also displays past usage dates and usernames for the last rolling 30 day period.

    To view your license usage:

    1. Open the Ideate Software application.
    2. Select Manage License from the Help menu.
    3. Pick the ‘Status Inquiry’ button located towards the bottom right of the dialog
    4. Wait for the list to populate:

    Please note that all displayed data is view-only, no edits are possible in this dialog.

    The ‘Status Inquiry’ button is not available for FlexLM licenses.
