Understand Company, Location, Terminal, and Licence Identities

Understand Company, Location, Terminal, and Licence Identities
Overview
This guide will help you choose the correct Muhasib scope when configuring access, devices, transactions, printing, and licensing.
Transactions and reports can be scoped differently by company, location, terminal, user, and licence. A correct licence does not automatically grant role permission, and a terminal master record does not by itself prove licence activation.
Who can do this
You need access to No write permission is required to understand the model. Viewing each record depends on its module permission.
Before you start
Identify the connected database and active company shown in Back Office.
Before saving, check that the correct company is open and that you have permission to complete this task.
Where to find it
Use Licence Information, company selection, Essentials Setup, and User Management to inspect each identity. This concept article has no single write path.
Understand Company, Location, Terminal, and Licence Identities
Step 1: Confirm the connected database
Step 2: Confirm the active company before changing records
Step 3: Identify the location where work and inventory should be recorded
Step 4: Match the computer's application-terminal record to that location and printer
Step 5: Review Licence Information separately to confirm primary/additional-terminal status
Review Licence Information separately to confirm primary/more-terminal status.
Step 6: Check the user's assigned role, companies, and action permissions
Check your work
You can name the database, company, location, application terminal, licence-terminal type, and user role involved in the intended task.
Take a moment to check your work before closing the window. This small check can save time later.
If something goes wrong
If the same word “terminal” appears in licensing and setup, check which identity the screen uses.
If a company is missing, check role assignment and licence scope before creating another.
