Re: User licenses

I don't know what their view is on it.  I figure the users are just running
my programs, and they happen to be accessing MAPICS data.  They shouldn't
have an issue with that - no different than query.

Dale:

What is MAPICS view on the use of "inquiry only" users?  We could probably
eliminate several users who only inquire on data & not actually do any
updating.

   Weston,

   We have a significant number of "inquiry only" users (people that only
   look up where parts are, if material has been charged to an order, etc).

   We gave them IDs that run simple inquiry programs we wrote ourselves
that
   offer very similar data to the standard MAPICS inquiries.  That saved us
   over 20 userIDs, which translates into a LOT of money.  The only people
   that get "real" MAPICS IDs are people that do maintenance and/or entry.

   List
   We are in a point in time where we need 5 more licenses= .
   However, our GM fell out of his chair when he seen the quote.
   We = are using the registered user scheme.
   My question is, how do you all kee= p the amount of users down to
   a minimum so that amount of users is affor= dable?

   Thanks in advance.
