By default, Aura handles license checkout and check-in automatically during processing. If you are working without internet access, you can manually check out a license for offline use.

Checking out a license reserves it for offline use, removing it from the shared pool until it is manually checked in or the checkout period expires.

Process

Step 1: Open license details

  1. Open Aura.

  2. Go to the User Profile menu in the top-right corner.

  3. Select License Details.

Step 2: Select a license

  1. In the License Details table, review available licenses, their modules, and expiry dates.

  2. Find a license that meets your requirements.

  3. Click Check Out. The Offline Processing menu opens.

Step 3: Define offline use

  1. In the Offline Processing menu, review the selected seat, assigned modules, and expiry date.

  2. Use the dropdown to select the number of days required for offline use.

  3. Click Confirm to complete the checkout.

Once a license is checked out for offline use:

  • The license is locked to your machine for the defined period.

  • Other users cannot access the license until it is checked in or expires.

  • You can continue using Aura offline without an internet connection.

Check in the license when it is no longer needed to avoid blocking others.
