- Counting rules
- Count the aggregated numbers of sessions accessing the licensed Software at any 1 time. A session is the time between logon and logoff or time out where a unique user, application or platform accesses the licensed Software either directly or indirectly via a custom application. Sessions accessing each Deployment must be limited by corresponding license key mechanisms; the maximum enabled on a Deployment may not exceed the Licensed Level of Concurrent Sessions assigned to that Deployment; the aggregate enabled on all Deployments may not exceed the Licensed Level. Users in deployments with an unlimited number of sessions require a Named User License for the licensed Software product. There is no license limit on number of processors or servers used. Customer may not utilize any program or system to cache or queue report requests.
