In license management, you control the availability of product licenses and thus the use of product versions and add-ons:
- Manage license server (Using licenses on a license server).
- Show available licenses in a list
- Set the license you want to use at product startup (Setting licenses for use), (Finding new licenses and removing licenses from the list that are not (no longer) available)
- Activate, update, deactivate, search, and remove licenses from the list (Activating a license on your computer), (Updating licenses on your computer), (Deactivating a license on your own computer)
- Use licenses from a license server (Using licenses on a license server)
- Use cloud-based licenses (Using cloud-based licenses)
- Prepare licenses for borrowing (Preparing the borrowing of licenses)
- Borrow licenses (Borrowing a license), (Returning a borrowed license)
Access options for license management
You have the following options to open the license management:
- from within the installed product (Opening the license management in the product)
- in the standalone tool PTV License Manager (Managing licenses with the PTV License Manager). This helps you as an administrator to centrally configure the license selection. You can download, install, and use PTV License Manager without installing a PTV Vision product (from our web page: PTV Vision Setups). You can call up the PTV License Manager from the Windows Start menu.
- You have to manage licenses of a version older than 2021 in the Web Depot or the PTV License Manager (Managing licenses for product versions before 2021).
