I intend to very strongly recommend that they incorporate this feature into the new code. The licensing has now gotten so complex, that it makes it very difficult to know whether or not you are in compliance and exactly how many licenses are in use at any given time. Right now you have to purchase another piece of software just to keep track of the licenses. This results in higher costs and a significant loss of productivity. Not exactly the reason most of us purchase software.

Also, Is there going to be a built in license calculator in TSM V6? Anyone
