Best Practice – Creation of a Ticket

Creation of production order Generation of an equipment Call to CodeMeter License Central for the creation of a ticket

Customer ID as reference (no records)

Order ID as reference (or automatic transfer ID generation)

List of items (sku) / bill of materials

Parameters of items (mapping to the order defined parameters)

Storage of the ticket in the equipment Field selectable (i.e. sort field)

16.09.2015


Production options

Just in time production License creation just in time / Flexible design of the license

Direct assignment to the end user only if data were available

The transfer time depends on the process

Production on stock Preliminary license (ticket) creation

Tickets are either stored virtually or printed on a license note

Immediate license delivery when the ticket is in stock

Assigning licenses to end users after their online registration is possible (reseller)
