Profitbase Studio needs an activated license in order to be used.
Activation is required for each user of the software, and software activation is linked to a license. This means that if a user has access to different licenses and wants to switch between these licenses, activation is required for each of these licenses for that user.
Start Profitbase Studio, and select menu Tools | License Management...
Following dialog is then shown:
From this dialog you enter your License Id and Password, and if online click on Register.
You can also use a license file if you cannot get online.
From this dialog you can also see your active license and manage them if you have more than one (test, production etc).
Start Profitbase Studio, and select menu Tools | Product Activation
Activation Profitbase Studio can be done either automatically or manually.
Automatic Activation is the easiest way, but it requires that you have internet access from the computer you are running Profitbase Studio on.
When using automatic activation, you must provide your license id and password. Profitbase Studio then contacts the Profitbase Licensing Server and activates the copy of the product for the user running the activation. On your local system, the activation is associated with the current user and the license id specified.
The license used for activation is also downloaded to your system and set as the active license used by Profitbase Studio.
Manual Activation is a less straight forward process that you can use if you do not have internet access from the computer you are activating Profitbase Studio on. Please follow these steps to perform a manual activation:
After completing the activation wizard, Profitbase Studio will be activated and the license you selected will be set as the active license.
