Formulae License issue

User Guide: Managing Formulae Plugin Expiration in Visure Client

When logging into the Visure client, you may encounter a pop-up window with the following message:

"Formulae license expired"

Impact

This message does not affect the performance of the Visure client in any way. It is a hard-coded feature by the developer indicating that the plugin has reached its expiration date. However, to avoid this message and ensure seamless usage, you have two options:

---

Option 1: Disable the Plugin

Disabling the plugin will stop the message from appearing. Follow these steps:

1. Access the Plugin Manager:

   • Open the Visure client and navigate to the top-left corner of the interface.
   • Click on Project and select Plugin Manager from the dropdown menu.
     • In the pop-up window that appears, locate the Formulae Plugin.
     • Uncheck the box next to the plugin to disable it.

       Disable for Each Project:

       • If your projects are configured with a Corporate Plugin Path in the Admin Center:
         • Verify in the Admin Center whether the desired project has a corporate path.
         • expand the desired project and click on project settings, you should see the corporate path in the right panel
         • If it does, you will need to disable the plugin individually when logging into the project through the Visure client.

Option 2: Update the Plugin

Updating the plugin will resolve the expiration issue and keep the plugin functional. Follow these steps:

1. Download the Latest Plugin:

   • Download Visure Formulae 8.1.0.5177.

2. Extract the Plugin Files:

   • Unzip or extract the plugin files to a convenient location on your computer.

3. Upload the Plugin via Admin Center:

   • Open the Admin Center using the ADMIN account.
   • Click on Upload Plugin located in the top menu bar.
   • Browse and select the extracted plugin file to upload it.

4. Confirmation in Visure Client:

   • Once the upload is complete, log into the Visure client.
   • A confirmation message will appear stating that the plugin has been updated successfully.

5. Handle Corporate Plugin Path (if applicable):

   • If the project is configured with a Corporate Plugin Path:
     • Copy the updated plugin files to the destination project's designated folder in the corporate path.
