Microsoft licences (CAL)
Microsoft Client Licences (CAL)
are not included in the scope of
supply of the Access server.
The Microsoft Client Access License
(CAL) licences access by devices or
users to Microsoft server operating
systems whose licence model envis
-
ages that additional licensing is
required every time the server soft
-
ware is accessed.
Customers who wish to operate
the Access system on their own
server must check whether CALS
have to be purchased or whether
the existing provision (in respect of
the server type and CAL variant) is
sufficient (e.g. the customer already
has user CALs for all employees for
the Windows server 2012. The cus-
tomer is required to check its own
licence agreements to determine
whether these entitle users to access
the Windows server of the Access
system.).
CAL variants
• Device CAL: A device CAL entitles
all users to use a certain device
with server access (e.g. PC in the
workshop which is used by different
employees.).
• User CAL: A user CAL entitles
a certain user to use any optional
number of devices with server access
(e.g. employee uses a PC, laptop and
smartphone).
