Lock License
Section titled “Lock License”Unused licenses can be locked. Once locked, the license cannot be sold or bound.
Bind License
Section titled “Bind License”A license can only be bound to one device at a time. A device can be bound to multiple licenses at the same time.
License Binding Rules
Section titled “License Binding Rules”A license can only be bound to a device that matches its model range.
A license can only be bound to one device at a time. However, it can be used by multiple devices through multiple binding and unbinding operations (for example, after the currently bound device incurs a deduction record, the license can be unbound and then bound to another device).
A device can be bound to multiple licenses at the same time, but the system will only deduct from one of them, prioritizing the license with the earlier activation time.
A superior customer can bind a license to a sub-customer’s device, using the license of the currently logged-in customer. After binding, the corresponding license will be automatically transferred to the sub-customer who owns the device.
