Overview
Generating a Reference Code using SlsAdmin
The Reference Code is displayed either on installation or on first use, depending on the design of the publisher's (P's) application).
The user (U) must generate a Reference Code on the hardware on which the licence file is to be created, which could be a standalone PC or network file server.
Alternatively U can generate a Reference Code using the Sheriff Administrator (SlsAdmin) as follows:
- U opens the Product Registry by selecting Licence | Registry (or by clicking the Registry button on the toolbar).
- The Registry displays details of the registered products, including Product ID and Licence Path.
- U selects the product and clicks on the License button and the Reference Code is displayed.
- U informs P of the Reference Code.
- (Optional) U informs P of the
Status Code.
Generating a Licence Key using SlsGen
The publisher (P) issues the user (U) with a Licence Key as follows:
- P enters the user's name.
- P selects the appropriate product from the drop-down list.
- P enters U's Reference Code.
- P defines the
Licence Policy by enabling the licence features and selecting the options.
P clicks on the Generate button to produce a Licence Key for the User.
U enters the Licence Key in the Licence Product dialog box and clicks Save. The product is now licensed.
