CAD tip # 13917:

A named user license is usually granted just for a single running copy of a given program. The program itself can usually be installed on up to 3 computers, but can only run simultaneously on one at a time. You are not allowed to use shared (or role-based) login names.

To alert the user that they are at risk of violating the licensing terms of their personal name license, a "Device limit reached" warning dialog is displayed when running the 3rd copy of that license on any computer in the world (and already for the 2nd copy for Fusion, as of November 2023, the 2nd license limit will apply for other Autodesk products as well).

This dialog lists the names of the computers that are currently running (and since when) the same CAD application under the same user account. By pressing the "Pause product" link you can then suspend or temporarily invalidate any remote license (this only suspends the license, the product is not forcibly terminated and there is no risk of data loss). You can, for example, from home, "put to sleep" (pause) an Inventor copy forgotten running on your company computer.

On the computer with a suspended license, a similar dialog will be displayed listing all concurrently running licenses for that particular application with that account (including the suspended "local" license). You can then suspend another license (session) and restart the "local" license again. Or simply press "Check again" to check the current status of the licenses.
