About license term fulfillment

License Managers can define which license terms require fulfillment.

The fulfillment status of a license term is defined for a term at the license level, as not all instances of a license term may require fulfillment. This allows you to easily define the fulfillment requirements for a license term,

The work flow for license term fulfillment is:

1. License Managers determine the license terms that require fulfillment. Fulfillment can be defined when:

   • Associating a license term.

   • Viewing all terms for a specific license.

   • Creating a new term or adding an existing term for a specific license when using the License Name License Terms tab.

2. The System Administrator enables the Project Version's Legal tab.

3. BOM Manager's use the Term Fulfillment tab on the Project Version's Legal tab to view all license terms that require fulfillment and indicate which license terms are fulfilled.

Note the following:

• It may take time for license term fulfillment requirements to appear on the Legal tab.

• Policy managers can create a policy rule that will trigger a violation when there are unfulfilled license terms.

  Note that the Term Fulfillment tab on the Legal tab must be enabled so that a user can indicate that a term is fulfilled. If the Legal tab is disabled, which is the default setting, a user will be unable to indicate that a term is fulfilled, and policy violations cannot be cleared.

• License term fulfillment status can be cloned.

• A new project version report, license_term_fulfillment_date_time.csv lists the license terms and fulfillment status for a project version.
