Licensing
About the Licensing Concept of Xtract Universal
Xtract Universal is licensed per Windows server. The license is bound to your company and a specific server name. If you run the Xtract Universal Designer and the Xtract Universal Server on different machines, it is only necessary to replace the license on the server.
A trial license is automatically installed with the installation of Xtract Universal.
A regular license is provided in the customer portal - My Theobald Software after purchasing the product.
The license defines the following properties:
- The name of the server that runs the Xtract Universal Server.
- The destinations to which you can extract data to.
- The number of extractions you can define.
These properties are checked when the XtractUniversal Server runs an extraction.
Note
The number of defined extractions and other license information is displayed in the status bar at the bottom of the Designer.
Recommendation
According to our experience, medium-sized businesses use less than 100 extractions.
Install the Xtract Universal License
Place the "XtractUniversalLicense.json" file that is provided in the Customer Portal - My Theobald Software into the installation directory on the server, e.g., C:\Program Files\XtractUniversal.
Tip
To inspect your current license data, open the Xtract Universal Designer and navigate to [Help] > [Info] in the main menu bar. Alternatively, press [F12].
Move a License to a new Server
When moving your setup to a new server, a new license file must be issued for that server. Contact our sales team at sales@theobald-software.com to let us know the name of the new server.
