License

Type of Connections

Type	Description
Beas Basic	If you start Beas, the system searches for Beas Basic License. If available, the system checks whether the license is used on another station. If yes, you can move the active license to the current station. The user can start Beas on one station more than once without additional licenses, but only on one station at a time. In this case you can see 2 entries, for every start. For this, Beas creates a unique Beas Session ID for every Beas session. On the right side of the User you can see the used Session ID.
BEAS Product Configurator (Single Sales user) Beas APS Gannt Viewer	The system checks if the license reservation exists, but it does not create a license reservation. You cannot see an entry in the connections.
Beas Product Configurator (Web User)	This is is used for the WEB Configurator. You need a license for every Session (not User or Employee). In "Connection" you can only see the Session ID. Note: The user must click on "logout", otherwise the license is not free. It takes up to 10 Minutes for deleting the license reservation.
Beas Terminal License	WEB APP: The system reserves the license if you connect to the WEB APP, and disconnects the reserved licenses if you click on "Logout". IMPORTANT: If you don't click on "Logout", it takes up to 10 Minutes before you can use the license again. Desktop: The system reserves the license only while you are logged in.
