Showing sessions at a particular point in time
To specify the precise date and time for which you want to view the user history, check the “Show sessions at time point ” box in the Settings panel.

General Information
The General Information area includes identifying information for the feature, the last update time, a share code if sharing is in use (for example, "Shared on: HOST"), and the license type.
User History grid
The User History grid shows the username, hostname and start and end times the feature was used. Start and end times define the time a given user on host used at least one license. For realtime license servers, if the user still has the feature checked out, the End Time will state "Still in use". For imported license servers, if we don't have information about the end time of the session, the End Time will state "Unknown".
You can add the User history report to the License Statistics Dashboard. Learn more about customizing the Dashboard.
User History grid versus Usage Per User report
When a user checks out a license, the license server assigns an identifier for the checkout called a Session ID. The user can check out more than one license from the same host per Session ID, but the User History grid is able to show only a single row for each user/host pair and a Session ID. Sometimes you can see two rows in the grid instead of one. This can occur when there are problems with querying the license server and we have no information for a given period of time. In such situations we should treat them as two distinct sessions.
