Install MR 2010 License Key

Posted on by 565

Good afternoon,

We've installed MR 2010 Server and Client.  However when launching either Report Designer or Report Viewer we get a message saying our evaluation period for the software has expired and that we need to enter a new license key.  We've downloaded the new license key, but we have no idea where to enter it into MR or GP.

Can anyone please shed some light as to how to enter in the license key?

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks,

Roc

    Yes it does but not in CU13. Here is the reply I received from Microsoft.

    The changes you described are normal as of CU13. Please see this blog post:

    blogs.msdn.com/.../management-reporter-2012-cu-13-now-available.aspx

    Here are the relevant sections:

    •With Management Reporter 2012 CU13, we have also removed the licensing checks within Management Reporter. All of the Microsoft Dynamics ERPs now support an unlimited licenses model, and we've decided to stop checking for licensing within Management Reporter. If you are not yet on an unlimited license plan, please ensure you stay compliant on your number of users.

    •Changes were made to the database schema. If you had existing queries or scripts, they may need updating

    So to sum up, Tools -> Registration has been removed. There is no longer a need to register the product. Also, the schema changes are what you are seeing with the

    Not in the latest release of MR. In the latest release the license key is no longer required.

    Registration Keys are found within PartnerSource Business Center (formerly Voice system)  If you are looking for the registration key for a specific client - enter that client then choose View Registration Key.

    If you are the partner and want your own keys, leave the client line blank and click on View Registration keys.

    Select Registration Keys under your line of software and from there - MR should be nearly impossible to miss.

    Hope this helps.  If so, mark as Answer - thanks.

    Thanks - The solution mentioned to delete the key worked for me. Once I went into SQL and deleted that record, (Delete from ManagementReporter.dbo.license ) It deleted one row.

    Now when I tried logging into Report Designer, it logged me in as usual except under evaluation mode. I was able to go into Options -> Registration and update the keys & from there it worked as normal

    Hi Alex,

    just either of the following scripts after selecting ManagementReporter database:-

    delete License >>then restart MR and enter the license key

    or

    Set LicenseKey = '' >>then restart MR and enter the license key

    Good luck.
