Set Default Licensing for Your Managed Package

If you set up the License Management App (LMA) and register your managed package, you receive a license record each time a customer installs your AppExchange solution. You can use licenses to track who's using your solution and for how long.
Before you register a package version, make sure that:
  • Your solution is in a managed package.
  • You installed the LMA. In most cases, the LMA is installed in your Partner Business Org.
  • You connected the org that has the LMA to the AppExchange Partner Console.
  1. Go to the Partner Console.
    See Access the AppExchange Partner Console.
  2. Click Technologies | Solutions.
  3. Click a solution name to show the related versions.
  4. Locate the package version that you want to register.
  5. Confirm that you see Unregistered Package (1) in the Licenses column (2).

    If you don’t see a Licenses column, it most likely means that the solution isn’t a managed package. You can register only managed packages.

    Tip

  6. Click Register Package (3).
    If the Register Package link is missing and you instead see Edit Licenses (4), the package is already registered and you’re done.

  7. Follow the prompts to log in to the org where the LMA is installed. Provide a username and a password with a security token appended. For example, if the password is ABC and the token is 123, enter ABC123. Don’t remember your token? Reset your security token.
  8. Edit the default license settings.
    1. Select whether your default license is Free Trial or Active. For a Free Trial license, enter a number up to 90 for the number of trial days.
    2. Select whether your license is applied Per seat or Site-wide. For a per-seat license, enter the number of seats to assign to the license.
    3. Save your changes.
