Like Operational Metrics, MSW and PSW require an active Maintenance license before you can access them. You obtain the Maintenance license key through the following Web site:

In the Web URL, click the Generate License Key button to generate a license key, then follow the prompts to generate the license key. Once you select the Accept key, the system generates the key, displaying it on the Web URL screen, and e-mails the license key to you.

Once you obtain the license key, you must register the Maintenance license with the system through License Registration (36.16.10.1).

If you attempt to run either the MSW or PSW and you do not have an active Maintenance license, the system displays an error message. The system displays a warning if the active Maintenance license is close to the license expiration date. Refer to QAD Security and Controls User Guide for information on registering the license key in QAD EE. Refer to the QAD .NET User Interface 2.8.1 Release Notes for information on Operational Metrics Licensing.
