Deactivating a KnowledgeBase term

You may decide not to show your users specific license terms that are defined by Black Duck KnowledgeBase.

When a term is deactivated, it does not appear when users view the terms for a KnowledgeBase license; for example, when BOM Managers view the license terms in the BOM.

There are two methods you can use to deactivate a KnowledgeBase license term:

• Using the License Terms tab which lists all license terms

  
  
  

• Using the License Terms tab for an individual license

  
  
  

Deactivated KnowledgeBase license terms can be restored.

To deactivate a KnowledgeBase license term when viewing all terms :

1. Log in to Black Duck with the License Manager role.

2. Click > Licenses.

   The License Management page appears.

   Select the License Terms tab to display all license terms.

   
   
   

3. Click in the row of the license term and select License Association.

   The License Association dialog box appears showing all licenses that have this license terms associated to it.

   
   
   

4. Click in the row of the license you want to disassociate to this license term.

5. Select Deactivate to confirm. The license term is no longer associated to that license.
