Summary

The Generate Web Keys tool is used to generate web keys for license holders. These web keys are then used by those license holders to access the Business Licensing and Licensing and Tax online applications.

Step by Step

• Open the Generate Web Keys window (LP> Utilities> Generate Web Keys).
• The Selection Criteria section is used to filter the licenses that will be included in the generate tool by license type and license status.
  • If web keys are generated without specifying a license type or license status, the tool will generate web keys for all existing licenses that are not already assigned a web key.
• Enter a License Type or click the field label to select one from a list.
  • License types are license templates used to quickly create similar licenses on the License Maintenance window (LP> Maintenance> License> General tab> License Type field).
  • License types are created and maintained on the License Type Maintenance window (LP> Maintenance> License Type).
  • If a license type is not selected, the tool will generate web keys for all eligible licenses that are assigned the license status specified to the right.
• Enter a License Status or click the field label to select one from a list.
  • License statuses are user-defined status codes that are used to define the current status of a license. Licenses are assigned a license status on the License Maintenance window (LP> Maintenance> License> General tab> License Status field).
  • License statuses are created and maintained on the License Status Maintenance window (LP> Maintenance> License Status).
  • If a license status is not selected, the tool will generate web keys for all eligible licenses that are associated with the license type specified to the left.
• Click the Generate icon to generate web keys for all of the licenses associated with the license type and license status selected.
  • The eligible licenses will populate the Licenses data grid below and each license will be assigned a random web key.
• Click the Save icon to save the web keys to the license records.
