Important: Multi-server licensing is only available if you have more than one Sage 100 Contractor license. 

Why Use Multi-Server Licensing?

• You have multiple offices, each with its own server.
• You're migrating to a new server while continuing work on the current one.

Before You Start

• These steps apply to Sage 100 Contractor
• All servers must have internet access so Sage can verify licenses
• You’ll need your Sage client ID (10 digits starting with 4) and Registration name

How to Allocate Licenses Between Two Servers

1. On the first server, open License Administration.
2. Click Edit registration information.
3. Enter your Sage client ID and Registration name, then click OK.
4. Click Multi-server licensing in the bottom right.
5. Choose Manually specify license allocations for this server.
6. In the Uses for [server] column, adjust the number of licenses (only the first line).
7. Click OK.
8. On the second server, open License Administration.
9. Click Update license information.
10. Confirm that the remaining licenses are now available on this server.

Allocating Licenses Across Three or More Servers

   NOTE: Each server must have a unique Windows computer name (for example, SERVER1, SERVER2)
