License Activation Center Administration Quick Start

(Note: This quick start is under construction and not yet complete. Please check back for additions to this page.)This Quick Start takes you through a simple example of using License Activation Center (LAC) to learn how to:

1. Log into the administrative area of LAC.
2. Add products, along with selecting a license generator for the product and adding features and templates for the product.
3. Add customers.
4. Create license orders.
5. Activate a license.

...

1. Log into LAC by copying and pasting the activation key into the end user log-in screen at https://license.x-formation.com/login^{Image Removed}. (If you're at the vendor log in screen, click the "Enter your activation key to get your license" link at the bottom of the log in area to switch to the end user log in screen.) This opens a Licenses page that list the license details, including the product name, version, license type, and other details. When a host ID is required, this page specifies the host ID type that is needed to activate the license. Since we changed the host ID type to "Not Locked," no host ID type is needed to activate the license.
2. Click Activate. 
3. After the license is activated, click Download to get the license. The license is downloaded as a .lic file, which the user can rename and place in an appropriate directory as required to run the licensed software. The license can be re-downloaded anytime, as long as the license is valid (not expired).

This concludes the LAC License Activation Center Administration Quick Start.
