License Activation

Attention

If you do not have an active subscription in your Production environment yet, then note that you can use the free demo version of Document Creator in a Sandbox environment. For Sandbox environments, you can skip the instructions in this section of the installation manual. Please find more information on the licensing and pricing on our website.

To activate the full version of Document Creator, for a Production environment, please start a subscription via the Apportunix Subscriptions page as described in this chapter.

Tip

You can also follow the Document Creator Setup Wizard under Setup & Extensions > Assisted Setup, where you will be guided through the setup for the app, including how to set up a subscription to activate Document Creator in your Production environment.

Before you can run reports with a Document Creator layout in a Production environment, you will need to set up an active subscription for the "Document Creator" app first, for this there are two options:
