Regarding online user with session type "web user", "business connector", "user"

Hi All,

 

We use Citrix within our environment.

I was just wandering why when I login, if I go to admin --> common forms --> online users

I can see four accounts under name ?

 

One session type = Business connector,

One session type = User

Two session type = Web User (sometimes only one)

 

Does this also mean that this is taking 4 of my share of user license even though I am the only one logging in ?

If someone can shed some light that would be great and very much appreciated.

 

Thank you

Yogi

    Hi,

    First of all you need to provide more information about how your solution utilizes the  .NET Business Connector. I guess it's through Enterprise Portal (EP), but this is only a guess.

    In general terms with regards to EP, this is as expected. I think you have to look into 1) how the .NET Business Connector works (multi session client) and 2) how AX differentiates between a rich client user and a Web user (two different categories of users with regards to licencing).

    The answer to your second question is found under item 2 above.

    Good luck!

    No, you only use one license!

    If you check your license form (administration module), you'll see you have a separate license voor de business connector.

    If you check the tabpage web, you'll see the number of webuser for which you are licensed for.

    Only the online users of the type "User" are counted as AX "desktop" licenses...
