1. Licensing Overview
May 2019

2. About Dispatcher Phoenix Licensing
Dispatcher Phoenix is licensed by Active Inputs and User Licenses
For information on Active Input Licensing, see Slides 3-10.
For information on User Licenses, see Slide
For information on Release2Me licensing, see Slide

3. Active Inputs
ACTIVE INPUTS Input Folder Collects from local or network folders
MFP Collects from MFP User Boxes
bEST Allows you to initiate workflows directly from an MFP using bEST technology.
LPR In Collects print jobs from an LPR Client like the Windows Printer Queue.
SMTP In Receives s sent from an MFP.
Google Cloud Print Receives Google Cloud print jobs.
FTP In
Collects files from FTP Servers. In
Collects files from Folders
Dropbox In
Collect files from a folder in Dropbox.
An active input is a point of entry into a running or scheduled workflow.
The following collection points are considered “active inputs”:
Input Folder
MFP
bEST
LPR In
SMTP In
Google Cloud Print
FTP In In
Dropbox In
A workflow can have one or many active inputs

4. How Are Active Inputs Counted?
Active Inputs are counted across multiple workflows by the following:
Same IP Address/Host Name for:
- bEST MFP
- SMTP In
- MFP - In
Input Folder Path
Dropbox In Folder Path (per account)
LPR Queue name*
FTP Server Folder Path
Google Cloud Print
C:\Folder\Path
LPR_PORT1
FTP://Folder/Path
* The LPR In node include a single active input for an LPR Queue. For every additional LPR Queue added to a workflow you will need an additional active input

5. Overview of Active Input Licensing for Devices
One device (unique IP/MAC address) used in multiple workflows is only counted ONCE
The same MFP device can be used in different types of inputs (e.g., bEST, MFP, SMTP In) and still only be counted ONCE
If multiple Input Folders in multiple workflows are collecting from the same directory, they are only counted ONCE
1 Active Input
Workflow #2
Workflow #1

6. Active Input Example: 1 Active Input
1st Example: Running 3 “separate” bEST workflows all using the same MFP (e.g., Convert to Microsoft Word, Convert to Searchable PDF, and Convert to PDF/A)
Workflow #1
Workflow #2
IP Address:
1 Active Input
Workflow #3

7. Active Input Example: 1 Active Input
2nd Example: 4 different workflows that each include only ONE Input Folder node as inputs and these Input Folders nodes all collect from the same directory
C:\Reports
Workflow #1
C:\Reports
Workflow #2
C:\Reports
Workflow #3
Folder: C:\Reports
1 Active Input
C:\Reports
Workflow #4

8. Active Input Example: 1 Active Input
3rd Example: 1 workflow with an SMTP In node, MFP node, and bEST node – all collecting from the SAME device
Workflow
All input methods reside on same MFP, so only 1 Active Input required
IP Address:
1 Active Input

9. Active Input Example: 2 Active Inputs
1 workflow with 3 In nodes. 2 are collecting from the same ABC Inc. ; yet 1 is collecting from a CDE Inc. . In this case, 2 active inputs are used.
Workflow

10. Active Input Example: 4 Active Inputs
4th Example: In this example there are 5 inputs - 2 use the same MFP (IP address) meaning 4 total active inputs are counted.
