After a successful patch of CPS22 from CPS2. I received emails saying that I had several participants that were disconnected from LDAP. I have read the article on how to search for disconnected participants and either delete them if they are no longer used or add them back into LDAP, but my question is do I need them?

I don't recognize these License users, can anyone provide some insight please?

Here is the list.

PTC Author License

PTC Bom Transformation License

PTC Contributor License

PTC EBOM Management License

PTC Ip protection license

PTC Manufacturing License

PTC Mechanical Design I License

PTC Mechanical Design II License

PTC Project Management License

PTC QUality License

These are new license groups that were added to support the new subscription model of licensing.  If you don't have any license subscriptions then you can completely ignore them.

Hi Tom

that makes perfect sense, thanks for the clarification, I guess when it comes time in June for us to convert over to the new license model these groups will come into play.

Have you done the conversion yet?

No, and I have no intention of doing so unless forced by PTC.  The subscription licenses are much more expensive over the long term, especially for those of us who already own perpetual licenses.
