Licensing Resolutions

 

Licensing resolutions occur when the systems encounters a conflict with the Site/Account Administrator’s E-Mail ID or a Site ID while activating a license. This system has a built-in capability that detects duplicate E-Mail ID or Site ID within an account or across accounts and proceeds to resolve the conflict through the licensing mechanism available separately for Single Site license and Multi  Site account activations.

Licensing Resolution - Single Site

When the user provides an E-Mail ID that already exist within an account or across accounts while activating a license. Tally.ERP 9 prompts the user with the resolution screen as shown below:

In the User Resolution screen, select the required option to activate the license:

1. Add to Existing Account:

  • Select this option in case you want the serial number provided to be included in the existing account.

  • The Activate Site Licence screen appears as shown:

  • The Supporting Activation Form appears as shown:

  • Provide the required Account ID in the Account ID field, a new account will be created and the License Serial Number provided in the Activation Form will be included in the new Account ID.

Licensing Resolution - Multi Site

When the user provides an E-Mail ID which is already existing within the same or different account or when the Site ID is duplicated within the same account, Tally.ERP 9 detects the duplicate E-Mail Id or Account ID as a conflict and provides the option to resolve it.

The conflict of a duplicate Account/Site Administrators E-Mail ID or Site ID can either be resolved by providing a new E-Mail ID or Site ID to activate the license serial number. In case the license serial number was surrendered earlier, the user can opt to reactivate the same.
