Licensing and Activating MYOB Acumatica

By default, MYOB Acumatica is installed in trial mode. In this mode, all features are available, but the mode has the following restrictions:

  • You can create no more than 10 tenants per instance.
  • All tenants that you create have the Test status.
  • Only two conventional users can concurrently use the system. Each time a third conventional user signs in to MYOB Acumatica, one of the current users is forcibly signed out.
  • Only two API users can concurrently use the system. A third API user cannot sign in to MYOB Acumatica and receives an error during the sign-in attempt.

For details on test tenants, see Tenants: General Information in the MYOB Acumatica System Administration Guide.

You remove the trial mode restrictions when you obtain and activate the license for using MYOB Acumatica.

A license is applied to an MYOB Acumatica instance. It determines the license tier (that is, the level of resources that you can utilize by using the license) and the set of features you can activate for the instance. You can create additional trial tenants. For details on applying a license, see Preparing an Instance: Activation and Licensing.

If you use MYOB Acumatica Customer Portal, you have to obtain a license for the Customer Portal instance, activate the license, and then activate the required Customer Portal features. For details, see Configuring the Customer Portal.
