The separate license needed to access the Inventory Module is named DINVNAME.DAT.
  • You first need to verify if the firm is licensed for the Inventory module in Flash or EMS. If they are, have the user download their licenses. If the firm encounters issues downloading their licenses, you can download the firm's license, rename their DWNAME.DAT to DINVNAME.DAT, and then email the license file you created to the firm.
    Never walk an external user through renaming their DWNAME.DAT license. This is to be completed internally only if a firm is having problems with downloading their licenses.
  • If the firm isn't licensed for the Inventory module, you'll need to submit an EMS Help Desk ticket so that the license can be made available to the firm through CS Connect. If the firm doesn't license the Inventory Module and is interested in doing so, transfer the user to Sales (x751363).
