Introduction
Tally provides you with two types of licensing options:
| • | Single-User Licensing |
| • | Multi-User Licensing |
TallySilver for Single-User
Single-user Licensing allows the deployment of Tally on a SINGLE computer with an option of activating it Online or Offline. You can also choose to use the same Tally license on another computer, by surrendering the license activated on a computer and reactivating it on the other. An Offline user takes the request file generated by Tally, to a computer, which has Internet connectivity, and activates the license.
TallyGold for Multi-User
Multi-user Licensing feature facilitates the use of Tally on ANY NUMBER of computers connected to a local area network (LAN). The method of activation is similar to that of a Single-User License
Once a Multi-User license is successfully installed on computer designated as the License Server, you can start up Tally when Windows starts and run as a service in the background. The other computers, designated as License clients can install Tally, and set the parameter TallyLicenseServer (E.g Servername:Port Number) in the configuration file also known as the Tally.ini file.
Note:
1. If you work on Windows XP and have a firewall installed, ensure that the firewall allows license clients access to the Server Port.
2. On the Client computer, there are few significant parameters set by default in Tally.ini file viz., TallyLicense = Connect and TallyLicenseServer = server:port
