How to Check Out a License for Offline Use

By default, Aura handles license check-out and check-in automatically during processing.

If you’ll be working without internet access, you can instead 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.

To check out a license, follow these steps:

 

Step 1: Open the License Details

  1. Open Emesent Aura.

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

  3. Select License Details to open the License Details menu.

Step 2: Select a License

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

  2. Find a license that meets your requirements.

  3. Click the blue Check Out button on the right-hand side.

    1. This opens the Offline Processing menu.

 

 

Step 3: Define Offline Use

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

  2. In the bottom-left corner, use the drop-down menu to select the number of days required for offline use.

  3. When ready, click Confirm to complete the license check-out.


 

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.

Remember to check in the license when no longer needed to avoid blocking others.

 

Step 4: Check in a license

If you need to check in your license early, refer to the How to Check In a License article for detailed instructions.
