Setting Up a Site License with 20 Sites

7 years ago

Hi,

If you are OK with creating one license per site, you can split a single purchase order (PO) and use it for multiple licenses.

After selecting your single PO from the "Procurement > Purchase Orders > Unprocessed Purchases" view, you can trigger the license creation and

set the "Quantity to process" value to 1 (one)
select 'a new license (create)' from choices listed after the "Apply to" label

The rest of the purchase order processing - setting maintenance, selecting the application(s), selecting the license type - is "business as usual". Unfortunately, you will have to repeat this process twenty times.

A license of type "Site" is always compliant. As documented in the FNMS Online Help , you can set up a scoping rule for limiting the consumption to devices in a certain location (site).

Using a business adapter for allocating devices to your site licenses might be a good idea.
