General Information

...

The User History grid cannot be used to monitor the maximum used/borrowed licenses or hours used/borrowed. To get a report on this type of usage data, use the Usage Per User report. For example, the following scenarios are handled differently in the User History grid versus the Usage Per User report:

ScenarioUser History Grid ResultsUsage Per User Report Results
User_A checks out 4 licenses at one time using Host_1.One row lists the User_A, Host_1 pair. The data does not include number of licenses checked out.One row lists User_A, aggregated by Username. Includes number of licenses used at the same time (4) in the "Max Used" column.
User_A checks out 1 license using Host_1, returns the license 15 minutes later, then checks out the license again 5 minutes later. Two rows list the User_A, Host_1 pair. The data does not include number of licenses checked out.One row lists User_A, aggregated by Username. Includes number of licenses used at the same time (1) in the "Max Used" column.
