Licenses
The User Management plugin shows the license usage for each XI series app, except ArcFM Web XI, in your tenant.
Example of license usage in Editor XI:
Example of license usage in ArcFM Mobile:
The License Summary shows you the license use, underuse, and overuse within a specific time frame. You can change the types of licenses seen or change the date range. The bars of the graph show you specific usage for the month highlighted.
Since XI series licensing is handled differently than the ArcFM 10.x series, here’s the typical procedure:
-
We receive a request to deploy a tenant.
-
SE Legal confirms that all contracts are in place.
-
We deploy your tenant with the license counts in place before delivery.
-
It takes a month following tenant deployment for the system to track usage by user license.
-
License usage (known as license file delivery in the ArcFM 10.x series) and XI series app configurations are mutually exclusive. Once we deploy your tenant and add initial license counts (to initiate usage tracking) to your tenant’s plugins, you are provided with installation and configuration details.
-
As your users begin their XI series journey, their usage is tracked retroactively, and license contracts are updated at renewal.
-
License tracking applies only to production tenants. We do not individually track license usage on non-production environments.
-
Reporting periods are provided in annual increments.
-
Licenses in active use for a month are calculated as the maximum number of unique logins for that month. Annual license usage is based on the month with highest active use.
-
You can click on any month to view a list of users by license type. This helps you monitor which users are active in the applications, and attempts to prevent surprises at contract renewal.
ArcFM Web XI
ArcFM Web is an intuitive, powerful, and lightweight application that expands the power of targeted web-mapping applications throughout your organization and maximizes the possibilities of GIS for use anytime, anywhere, on any device. As a web-based application, ArcFM Web’s HTML5/JavaScript technology provides effortless interaction with your organization’s data. ArcFM Web maximizes your investment in ArcGIS Server, ArcGIS Online, and Portal for ArcGIS web-mapping technologies. The value of ArcFM Web is from the partnership with VertiGIS (formerly Latitude Geographics). We leverage the VertiGIS Studio Web product to provide a comprehensive web viewer on the ArcGIS platform. Additionally, ArcFM Web exists inside your own environment, mostly on your Portal for ArcGIS machines.
We provide you with an ArcFM Web environment. To create a Web environment, contact the License Manager and provide your company’s contact information plus initial licensing requirements (product name: ArcFM Web; Start Date and End Date). The License Manager works closely with VertiGIS to set up your tenant and quickly give you the required access.
Once your environment is set up, all your access questions can be answered through myArcFM under the Log a Case. License contracts are updated accordingly at contract renewals. Any overuse of licenses is taken into account at contract renewal.
