'Associated Fulfillment ID and UNM ID (machine) has been added to the Authorization History page.'

what does this even mean?

[JoshBeaton]

Hi David,

Thanks for the good question. Please see the below definitions. Esri software uses a license generator built upon the third-party FLEXnet Publisher software. The information added to the authorization history is meant to help users verify if an authorization code was sucessfully assigned (fulfillment ID) and to what machine (UMN ID). This information can also be seen on the authorizations activity report in My Esri. Moving forward, I will do a better job  providing more details around Licensing as it is an important area for users to understand.

Fulfillment ID

A fulfillment is a transaction  against an entitlement line in which some portion of the entitlement is assigned to a specific license server system.

UMN ID (Unique Machine Name)

Can you please stop this from showing up every day?

[JoshBeaton]

Hi David,

Can you please verify what is showing up every day for you? Are you referring to the My Esri space sending you notifications or the Authorizatin information that is nested under the Authorization history?

Hi David - Sorry that you are getting so many messages from GeoNet.

Did you check your Preferences?

After you sign in to GeoNet, you can click your little avatar to find Preferences in the menu:

From there, you control the frequency of notifications.

Updating these will help you limit the number of notifications you get.

Hope this helps,

Teresa
