Example 2 - Opera 3 SQL with Scheduler and Stocktake

SQL Server Express may be used for Scheduler and Stocktake (SQL Express does not need licensing). These examples assume that SQL Server Express is not used.

In this example there are 5 people using Opera 3 SQL. The Scheduler client is used in 2 of the Opera Client PCs. Stocktake - a single-user application - is used in another of the Opera Client PCs.

As Scheduler and Stocktake are used in Opera 3 SQL they use the same licences.

Example 5 - Opera 3 SQL with Pegasus Web Xchange

In this example there are 5 people using Opera 3 SQL. They also use both Payroll Self Service and Timesheets, along with 15 other people.

The five Opera 3 SQL users are already covered by the CALs used for Pegasus Web Xchange. Separate CALs are not required for Payroll Self Service and Timesheets provided they are for the same people.
