Every user logging into the Digital Sales Platform is required to have a valid license assigned to the user record. There is a built-in application to manage such licenses (i.e. assign or re-assign existing licenses, and obtain new licenses). For this, the administrator can manage licenses under ‘Administration’ -> ‘License Management’ and needs to have the permission ‘MANAGE LICENSE PERMISSION’ assigned.
Assign Licenses
Under ‘Administration’ → ‘License Management’, the administrator can get an overview of how many licenses have been purchased when they have been purchased, how many licenses are currently assigned, and how many licenses are available. Licenses can also be assigned in two (2) ways:
-
- Go to 'Administration' > 'User Management' > 'Users' Then simply toggle to 'Yes' to assign the license.
- Click on the user to access the Account Information then toggle to 'yes' to assign the license.
- Go to 'Administration' > 'User Management' > 'Users' Then simply toggle to 'Yes' to assign the license.
Subscribe/Unsubscribe Licenses
Only the admin may act to subscribe or unsubscribe license(s). Upon successful submission, an email notification will also be sent to the administrator and other related personnel(s) to notify the action.
Subscribe
If additional licenses are required, an administrator can update the number of licenses in the box then click 'Subscribe'.
The administrator then needs to acknowledge the terms and conditions by checking on the boxes then click 'Confirm'.
Unsubscribe
To unsubscribe license(s), simply input the value in the 'Licenses Adjustment' box and click 'Unsubscribe'. A pop-up will show to confirm then click 'Yes' to proceed.
The system will then be auto-populated to reflect the current licenses available.
Notice of License Expiry
A “License validity” table can be maintained in the database by the admin, who can enter the license expiry date and number of days before expiry when the system should show the notification.
Upon license renewal and a new expiry date is updated in the “License validity” table, the notification banner will disappear accordingly after browser refresh or re-login.
License Expiry
This will update the license(s) duration history for the respective application. The number of license(s) duration history without any end date sums up the total licenses purchased. For this instant, the value adds up to 85.
In the event that the admin had subscribed/unsubscribed the license(s), the license duration history will automatically be updated with the end date.
