12
+ To register your database, you just need to enter your Subscription Code in the
13
+ banner in the App Switcher. Make sure you do not add extra spaces before or after
14
+ your subscription code. If the registration is successful, it will turn green and
15
+ will provide you with the Expiration Date of your freshly-registered database. You
16
+ can check this Epiration Date in the About menu (Odoo 9) or in the Settings Dashboard
17
+ (Odoo 10).

+
35
+ * Check if your subscription details get the tag "In Progress" on
36
+ your `Odoo Account

38
+
39
+ * Have you already linked a database with your subscription reference?
40

41
+ * You can link only one database per subscription.

59
+ * Do you have the updated version of Odoo 9?
60
+
61
+ * From July 2016 onward, Odoo 9 now automatically change the uuid of a
62
+ duplicated database; a manual operation is no longer required.
63
+
64
+ * If it's not the case, you may have multiple databases sharing the same
65
+ UUID. Please check on your `Odoo Contract
66
+ <https://accounts.odoo.com/my/contract> `__, a short message will appear
67
+ specifying which database is problematic:

71
+
72
+
73
+ In this case, you need to change the UUID on your test databases to solve this
74
+ issue. You will find more information about this in :ref: `this section <duplicate_premise >`.
75
+
76
+ For your information, we identify database with UUID. Therefore, each database
77
+ should have a distinct UUID to ensure that registration and invoicing proceed
78
+ effortlessly for your and for us.

+ Too much users error message
82
+ ----------------------------
83

84

144
+ Force an Update Notification
145
+ ============================
146
+
147
+ Update Notifications happen once every 7 days and keep your database up-to-date with
148
+ your Odoo Enterprise subscription. If you modify your subscription (i.e. add more users,
149
+ renew it for a year, etc.), your local database will only be made aware of the change
150
+ once every 7 days - this can cause discrepancies between the state of your subscription
151
+ and some notifications in your App Switcher. When doing such an operation on your
152
+ subscription, you can force an Update using the following procedure:
153
+
154
+ 1. Connect to the database with the **Administrator ** account
155
+ 2. Switch to the Developer mode by using the **About ** option in the
156
+ top-right menu (in V9) / in **Settings ** (in V10): click on
157
+ **Activate the developer mode **
158
+ 3. Navigate to the "Settings" menu, then "Technical" > "Automation" >
159
+ "Scheduled Actions"
160
+ 4. Find "Update Notification" in the list, click on it, and finally click on the
161
+ button "**RUN MANUALLY **"
162
+ 5. Refresh the page, the "Expiration" notification should be gone

+ .. warning :: You may have kept the same UUID on different databases and we receive
166
+ information from those databases too. So please read :ref: `this documentation
167
+ <duplicate_premise>` to know how to change the UUID.
168
+ After the change you can force a ping to speed up the verification,
169
+ your production database will then be correctly identified.
