2. What is a Multi-License?
The Multi-License environment
represents a multi-user system
environment in which multiple
licenses are managed by an
application called a License
Manager, and user settings can
be maintained by an application
called the System Configuration
Program.
4. How do you obtain a Multi-License
Only Original license IDs can be submitted
Procedure to issue Multi-license ID's for US and Canadian authorized dealers:
1- Courier original R4/R5 license ID cards to the address noted above (photocopies are not accepted).
2- Include a letter in the package with the customer's name, address and type of business. If the licenses are for Add-on, you will need to inform us of that and
include the current multi-license's number with the previous issue date.
3- Send an email to eDist with information regarding the package and the tracking number if available (Please also include the customer's name in the subject
field). It is very important that the information provided is correct and accurate as to avoid any delays in the process.
4- Upon receipt of the original licenses, we will issue multi-license IDs for DM and TM in exchange of the licenses received and send to you via email.
5- Any special requests should be included in the letter and/or email.
In case the customer need to add additional licenses purchased (5 min) to the existing multi-license ID in the future, the same process apply however you
