This section of your details page shows the status of your entitlement and allows you to renew it easily.
Renew now button: a one-click way to renew the entitlement, learn more.
Status: the current state of the license e.g. active, expired, etc. The status is color-coded so you can easily see the state.
License start: the process for starting this license, e.g. by activation.
Maintenance: is maintenance enabled for this entitlement? If so, then an additional field below will display the maintenance expiry date.
Activation date: when the entitlement was activated.
Expiry date: the date the entitlement expires based on its settings. In this example, it's a one-year subscription.
The expiry date has a small dot to the right showing the status at a glance. If the renewal is less than seven days, it shows red; if it's more than thirty days or less than 90 days, it shows orange; otherwise, it is green.
Maintenance expiry date: if the maintenance option is enabled then you will also see the Maintenance expiry date
Your entitlements can be hosted in the Zentitle2 cloud or in our Local License Server (LLS) deployments. This area displays the entitlement's location.
The entitlement page also has the attached features and attributes. These can be modified as required by editing them directly on the page using the "pencil" button next to each item.
Any manual edits to the standard offering from which the entitlement was derived will be marked as an "override," as in this example; in this case, the AAC feature was edited specifically for this entitlement.
Next, we will work with "activation codes" attached to an entitlement (where applicable).
