The information on this page refers to License Statistics v6.0 1 and newer, which introduced a new user interface (UI)the ability to set displayed usernames and hostnames directly from grids. If you are using a version previous to v6.01, see documentation for previous versions.

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.

...

  • License Statistics grids may be sorted by any column by clicking on the column title. Clicking again will sort the column in reverse order (ascending/descending).
  • Grid columns have additional viewing and sorting controls that are accessible by hovering over the column heading and then clicking on the arrow that appears at the right side of the column heading.

    Options include:

    • Sort in ascending/descending order
    • Hide/show columns (select the Columns option, then toggle the list of columns on/off)
    • Limit the grid contents (select Filters and then select the available options, or enter text for text fields)
  • The filters you apply and the number of rows you select to display in the grid will also be used when downloading the data to a file. For some pages, these settings are also used in the graph content.
  • Use the settings at the bottom of the grid to select pages and control the number of rows to display per page (20 - 1000).
