Generating New Registration Codes

For each new installation a registration code is required during the installation process.

To generate a registration code, the tenant needs to have at least one valid license remaining. The license is consumed during the process and dedicated license is required for each unique installation. You can observe your current available license balance from the On-Premise BMPs view (key icon next to “Copy registration code” button).
