Import an OutSite licence

If you purchase OutSite, you get a new licence. You download this licence from the customer portal and import it into Profit. Finally, you convert your environment so that the new functionality is also visible in Profit.

In the licence, we count the different types of visitors, for example, the maximum number of visitors that may visit the (customer) portal concurrently.

To implement a new licence with changed functionality and convert the environment:

  1. Start Profit.
  2. Log on as Administrator.
  3. Go to: Management / Licence.

    A question is displayed.

  4. Click on: Yes.

    You are now asked if you want to implement the licence.

  5. Click on: Yes.

    You must now immediately convert to be able to work in Profit. The conversion can take some time. If you do not have the time for the conversion now, click on No and perform this procedure when you do have time available. Profit cannot be used until you have converted.

  6. Click on: Next.
  7. Click on: Finish.

    You are now going to convert the environment.

  8. Go to: Management / Environment Manager.
  9. Go to the tab: Environments.
  10. You see the names of the environments that are present.
  11. Select the environment(s) to be converted.
  12. Click on: Options.
  13. Select Retrieve status of selected environment to retrieve the version number and status of the environment(s).
  14. Click on: Conversion.

    You are now asked if you want to make a backup.

  15. Click on: Yes.

    Note: 

    Make a backup of your environment(s) before you start the conversion.

  16. Click on: Yes.
  17. Click on: OK.
