Viewing Licence Report

Using this procedure, you will track licence usage by department and by timing interval (Day, Week, Month or Quarter), based on the Department data field for each user and workstation. The licence report is organised by process hierarchy, as follows: Company > Division > Region > Site > Department. The Licence Report page displays the total billed licences, including connection licences.

At the company level, Enact highlights the cells containing the highest licence allocation in the selected date range.

As noted in the Licence Report page, Enact displays all dates and times in UTC time zone, rather than the local process time zone. For example, if a new licence assignment occurs on 1 January at 10 PM EST for a department in the EST time zone, the licence report displays the date of this licence as 2 January, as UTC is 5 hours ahead of EST.

The licence report preserves all historical billing information, and will continue to list departments that you previously deleted and purged. However, Enact does not continue to store language labels for purged departments, listing them instead under their short names.
