The information on this page refers to License Statistics v6.16 20 and newer, which changed the User column on all report grids (except those found under the Administration menu) to a multicolumn view that includes all LDAP informationimproved color-coding used for license server "last update time" and feature reservations "last active" information to be based on the number of query intervals elapsed since the last successful query. If you are using a version previous to v6.1620, see documentation for previous versions. |

| Customizing License Statistics pages with different colors, graphics, etc. is currently not supported. |
License Statistics UI pages are intuitive to work with and include many features that help you quickly find and view the information most important to you, including the following features.

Navigation
Navigation is done using the left pane of the application window. Click on the arrows to expand/collapse sections and click on items under the sections to switch to that page. The following illustration shows switching to the "Features: Usage History" page.
...
Most content can be expanded to take up the entire License Statistics application window by clicking the expand "Maximize" icon 
at the upper right corner of the page/area.
Maximizing the content is particularly useful for viewing reports that have a large amount of data, more easily viewing data on a phone or tablet, or setting the view up for a screen capture.
When you expand content to maximum size, the navigation panel and other content of the page, such as selection controls, will not be visible. To return the page to its normal layout, click the restore "Restore down" icon 
at the upper right corner of the page, or press Esc on your keyboard.

For most reports (other than Administration reports, which do not support a public API), you can see a preview of the API resources for that report by clicking the "Show API resource" icon at the upper right corner of the report.
After clicking this icon, an API Resource window opens, with details of the API request used to generate the report, including the headers, endpoint and used parameters. You can use this information to facilitate integration with other tools, such as PowerBI, Excel or any other application that you want to allow to access the License Statistics data.

Color-coding is also used to indicate the minutes elapsed for license server "last update time" and feature reservations "last active" information to indicate the number of query intervals elapsed since the last successful query:
| Minutes elapsed since last update timeQuery intervals elapsed | Color indicator |
|---|---|
| 0 - 101 | Green |
| 10 1 - 202 | Orange |
| 20 2 or more | Red |

Date range
| Info |
|---|
Prior to v6.19, date range settings were static. As of v6.19, all date range settings (other than Custom) are dynamic, as described below. If you added reports with date ranges applied to the Dashboard, you will need to replace those reports to see dynamic date ranges. |
Selections for the date range you want to include in a report differ depending on the report. Date range selections may include:
- Current or Last Year
- Current or Last Quarter
- Current or Last Month
- Current or Last WeekWeek
- Today
- Yesterday
- Custom (which lets you select a specific start and end date from the calendars)
For all selections other than Custom, the range will be set according to the current date, and will adjust dynamically so that the range is always based on the current date, rather than the date upon which the setting was made.
For example, the following illustration shows that the current year has been "Last Week" selected for report results:. The range moving forward will always reflect "last week" according to the current date, rather than the particular dates effective at the time the option was chosen.
Grouping by time units

The area between the sliders is like a "window" on the timeline. In the example above, the sliders have been moved to show only the middle part of the chart's timeline.

- Hover over the User or Host cell that you want to view or set. A User/Host Details popup will appear.
If displaying LDAP usernames is enabled, and data from LDAP was imported, the LDAP display name (shown in the "Full Name" field under LDAP Details) will be used for the username and the popup will include additional LDAP details, as illustrated below. If LDAP data was imported there is a "Full Name" field visible on the popup window. If the checkbox is selected, then this Full Name will be used on grids, until it's overridden by custom Display name
- Type the desired text directly into the User/Host Details table's Display Name and/or Description fields (circled in green in the illustration below).
The Display Name you enter will override the default username/hostname and (if applicable) the LDAP username displayed in the grid.
