Entitlement Management Enhancements in 2024.02

The following enhancement to entitlement management was added in the 2024.02 release:

Mapping Expired Activation IDs to Devices

Two new configuration options have been introduced which allow producers to map expired activation IDs to devices. The facility to map expired activation IDs to devices enables customers to quickly identify which activation IDs have expired and require renewal.

To allow expired activation IDs to be mapped to devices, the following configuration options must be selected:

•

Allow mapping of expired entitlements (under System > Configure > FlexNet Operations > Embedded Device Settings)—Select this option to allow expired activation IDs to pass the validation so that they can be sent to the License Fulfillment Service for mapping.

Default: Unselected.

•

Allow expired line items to be mapped to devices or servers (under System > Configure > Embedded Devices > Host Options)—Select this option to allow the activation ID to be mapped in the License Fulfillment Service.

Default: Unselected.
