Working with Tillypad XL Manager and Tillypad XL POS requires a separate licence for each workplace. Licences are divided into several types based on the functionalities they provide to a workstation. Each licence type allows you to carry out a different set of operations connected to a particular sphere of activity (work with customers, settings and directories, store document management).
In order to use the features of Tillypad XL Manager or Tillypad XL POS at a particular workstation, you must enter a unique licence key.
Depending on their sites of verification, licences can be global or local. If global licences are used, the segment application server checks their keys on the licence server via the Internet. If local licences are in use, the keys are verified by the server of the segment for which the licence file package is specified in the segment window.
In Tillypad XL POS, licence types determine which POS terminal operating modes are available to the user.
