So If I understood correctly there's two ways: The host triggers the return by starting a capability request with the reduced quantity and uploads it to the portal The portal processes this capability request and adds up the licenses accordingly How does the portal / back-end server know that  the licenses have actually been removed from the device? Is there some capability response involved here? Alternatively: License is derectly removed from the device in the FlexNet FNO Portal Then a sync is performed ... what does sync stand for here? As far as I understand it would mean that a reduced capability response is generated which is downloaded onto the device The processes the reduced capability response and submits another request to the back-office so that the back-office can be sure that the device has been removed I'm implementing everything manually so I have to assume that there is (most of the time) no direct connection between host and FNO Portal --> the functionality of uploading and downloading the corresponding requests need to be available in the host's backend and the FNO's backend. ...
