License management
> [HTML Version](sprava-licenci.html)
[My Dotypos](moje-dotykacka.md) allows individual licenses to be managed, meaning temporarily [deactivated or activated](#aktivace_deaktivace), changing [the prepaid billing period](#zmena_fakturacniho_obdobi) or upgrading to [a higher license version](navyseni-licence.md). A temporary activation / deactivation is designed for seasonal cash register users, e.g. during the summer season. You can deactivate the license for the out-of-season period. When the license is not active, the cash register or [payment terminal Dotypay](dtp-a8-a8s.md) may not be used and you will not be issued any invoices.
On the page **License** you will see the overview of your licenses for the Dotypos. For each license, you will find the appropriate license code and the information to which cloud (storage) and cash register it is assigned. These data may be useful when dealing with technical support.
In the header, you can choose to display inactive licenses []. By tapping the pencil icon [] you can assign a custom name to the license, which will then be displayed in this report and also shown [on invoices](moje-dotykacka.md#stav_plateb) for license payment.

On this page, the license [can be updated to a higher version](navyseni-licence.md), [activated/deactivated](sprava-licenci.md#aktivace_deaktivace) or [you can change the billing period](sprava-licenci.md#zmena_fakturacniho_obdobi), i.e. the license subscription.

## Billing period adjustment
To adjust the billing period, select the selected **Invoicing period**. Then enter the preferred number of months or select the license subscription for 1 year and save the option. This option will not be valid until your current billing period expires, see [the example below](#priklad1). The final new license price will automatically include the discount valid for the selected option (if applied).

| [] | **Example:**
You have a license paid until 31.7. (end of license period) and your billing period is actually set to 3 months (we send you an invoice every 3 months). Now you select the annual license payment, and the new billing period will be 12 months. However, this change will not become effective until the current billing period ends. So you will get your invoice for August for 12 months with the 10% discount applied. |

## License activation (reactivation) and deactivation
To deactivate /activate a deactivated license, click on the button **Reactivate** or **Deactivate**. The license can be deactivated anytime. However the license will not be really deactivated until the current billing period ends. So if your billing period ends on 07/31, you can opt to deactivate on 08/01 or later.
In the deactivation details you can also set top to reactivate the license again on a specific date. This is useful for seasonal establishments, when you deactivate the license at the end of the season and set it to be reactivated on the season beginning date. You will be notified by email on the automatic reactivation.

The deactivated license can by reactivated anytime, however it will not take effect sooner than on the 1st day of the following month. So the activation is valid from the selected month on. Subsequently a periodic invoice for the activated license will be issued and sent to the email specified in the billing information on the [main page](moje-dotykacka.md#hl_stranka).

## Planned license actions
If there are any planned actions for the license (e.g. billing option change or deactivation), no further license adjustments can be made until the planned actions are performed.
