Definition
“Concurrent User” (CU): Each Concurrent User product license may be used by one individual person at any given time. Concurrent User products are generally “floating,” except: License Locked (L): Where the part number contains the suffix “L”, such products may only be used with another PTC product to which the product is an extension and the License Locked Product will assume the licensing basis of such other product.
Counting rules
Multiple Instances: an individual using multiple instances of Concurrent User products at a particular time will in most cases consume that number of licenses (two Creo Elements/Direct instances consume two licenses). Concurrent User products may only be used by persons physically located in the country of installation except Global / Restricted Global licenses; a traveling user can borrow (check out) the license for a limited period (for most products two weeks). Non-employees may use Concurrent User products only while physically located at a Customer site.
