Adding XMPie Licenses in the uProduce License Manager

Note: This operation can be performed by the system admin user only.

The License Manager enables you to add separate licenses for the following uProduce add-ons:

  • Volume packs for a specific amount of production units, or a full license for an unlimited number of production units.

  • Other XMPie add-ons and software licenses: uImage Production, uProduce Extension Server(s), PE Analytics, MI (Multi-Instance) Production, uChart, VIPP Enabler(s)* and Connectivity.

* For every composition server you must install a VIPP Enabler license.

You are required to enter the XMPie license keys in the License Manager on the uProduce server after installing the uProduce software, as well as any time you wish to add one of the above add-ons and software.

The following procedure describes the steps required for adding licenses using the License Manager.
