License Information
Company
This field displays your Company name, the name that
you register Collect! with. This name is taken from a
dialog that prompts for your Company Name any time
you enter a new license code. You can only change this
name when you enter a new license code. If you ever
need to change the Company name, you would need to
get a new license code from Comtech Systems Inc.
Do not mix up this Company name and your Company
Details Company Name. The Company Details Company
Name can be modified as you wish. However, changing
the Company Name in the Company Details does
not change the Company name that accompanies
the license code.
Issued To
This field displays your Issued To name, the personal
name that you register Collect! with. This name is
taken from a dialog that prompts for your name any
time that you enter a new license code. You can
only change this when you enter a new license code.
If you ever need to change the Issued To name, you
would have to get a new license code from Comtech
Systems Inc.
Do not mix this name up with your Company Details
Representative Name. The Company Details
Representative Name can be changed. However,
changing the Representative in the Company Details
does not change the Issued To name that accompanies
the license code.
Description
This field displays the text Demo or Station 1. In future,
it will be used to record and uniquely identify specific
workstations signed into Collect!
License ID
This field displays your unique License ID number. This
number is always a 5 digit number. You cannot change
this as Collect! places the License ID derived from the
License number Comtech Systems Inc. authorizes you
to use.
It is a good policy to use this number
as the password whenever you need
to encrypt any files that Comtech
Systems Inc. sends to you (or vice versa).
Using this License ID as the password,
we would never need to divulge a
password over a non-secure line. Your
unique License ID is registered with
us upon the purchase of Collect!.
Date Issued
This field displays the date that you entered your
last license code. This date is calculated by Collect!
the day that you enter your license code. You can
not alter this date from this form.
Users
This field displays the number of Users you are
currently licensed for. This information is taken
from the license code you enter. This will only
change if you enter a new license code to increase
your number of Users.
A User is defined as a person or workstation that
can sign into a Collect! database. If you need two
workstations to sign into Collect! at the same time,
then you would need a two User license. Even though
you may have many computers in your network, you
only license the number of users that need to sign into
Collect! at the same time, i.e. the number of computers
that sign into Collect! at the same time defines the
number of users you need to be licensed for.
