Iam curious to know how does Windchill Licence Work ?
Say, if i Have 2 "Heavy User" and 2 "Light User" licence does that mean:
1) Fixed 4 users can access Windchill ?
or
2) At a given point of time any 4 users from a set of users can access windchill ?
Also whats the diference between Heavy and Light user licence? Also how to check licence usage?
We will be using Windchill 10 M030
Thanks,
Rakesh
PTC's customer agreement goes into detail about the licensing basis for Windchill (named user) and also the difference between types (Heavy, Light, External...). You can access the current agreement here: http://www.ptc.com/support/customer_agreements/click_wrap_files/Clickwrap_09_en.pdf
You can do a self assessment of license usage in Windchill (Site>Utilities>License Usage Reporting). This gives a high level overview per month and you can drill down a bit to see the per hour data. If you want more detail,such as who logged into what context and howmany times,run a custom report and process it externally (Site>Utilities>Security Audit Reporting). You'll want to choose 'Context Logon' or 'Login' for audit event.
