To facilitate this automated fulfillment email, our team requires some additional information to add to our fulfillment system. Please provide the following information to the LabVIEW Tools Network upon submission so we can help get this set up.
These are the "Product Activation Code" that is sent to customers at time of purchase. We need a list of 50-100 unique activation codes so our database is ready for any new sales that come in.
If you have used the NI LabVIEW Third Party Licensing & Activation Toolkit (TPLAT) to license your product, you can generate a list of codes automatically through the SOLO Server by following these instructions
License ID: XXXXXXX Activation Password: XXXXXXX
License ID: XXXXXXX Activation Password: XXXXXXX
License ID: XXXXXXX Activation Password: XXXXXXX
If you do not use Third Party Licensing & Activation Toolkit for licensing your product, please contact your licensing vendor to learn how to generate a block of 50-100 codes and send these to the LabVIEW Tools Network team when you submit your Marketing Submission. Codes must be less than 75 characters each.
If your activation system requires a user to send computer information to you before they can activate, we still need some sort of activation code to send them at the time of purchase. This can be any uniquely identifying string of characters which acts as a proof of purchase for the customer (for example TESTCONF001, TESTCONF002, etc).
This should be 2-3 sentences that describe the activation process for your customers. If your product is a LabVIEW add-on and you have used the NI LabVIEW Third Party Licensing & Activation Toolkit (TPLAT) to license your product, you may use the standard Activation Instructions template as follows:
To activate this product open the Third Party Add-On Activation Wizard in LabVIEW through Help > Activate Add-ons. Follow the on-screen instructions. When prompted use the provided License ID and Password in the appropriate fields and click Activate.
If you do not use Third Party Licensing & Activation Toolkit for licensing your product, or you have an activation procedure that is different from above, please include these instructions in the marketing submission process. You may use the above text as a guide.
