Requirements
- All Licensing programs require a Citrix account to register.

Background
Citrix Licensing Programs consist of three different programs:
- Enterprise Licensing Program, which provides discounts on purchases over a specific amount and level
- Easy Licensing Program, which provides electronic licensing with no discounts.

- The next page shows the contract information and provides two other steps that you can take immediately or later. These 2 options can also be found on the home page under Manage Registration.
Publish Registration
This option streamlines notification of new contracts to a partner by making notification part of the process of registering a contract. It also allows the chosen partner to administer or manage the customer’s contract and provides them immediate access to the contract number and other information so they may place an order immediately. Publish Registration also allows customers to remove a partner or send notification of an existing contract to a new partner when the customer has not yet chosen one.
- Select Search for a Reseller in the middle of the page.
- Choose Country, State or Province, and enter partner name in the Name field, then select Continue.
- Select the radial box next to the preferred partner of choice (if more than one appears).
- Select Continue and Continue again.
- Add the e-mail address of the contact at the partner company you wish to receive the contract information notification.
- Select “Send Now”, this refreshes the page and shows an e-mail was sent to the e-mail address entered in the Email Address field.
- Select Finish. This brings the user back to the home page of the Licensing Program Registration where additional boxes appear allowing customers or partners to manage other aspects of a contract.
Manage Registration
- Upon completion of registration, the second option available is Manage Registration.
- Select Manage Registration, this brings you back to the home page of the Licensing Program Registration.
- In this section, a customer or partner may Manage Affiliates or Publish Registration.
- Manage Affiliates: This link allows parent companies to add affiliates to their contract. This is different from the Register>Affiliate Company in that this is where a Parent company adds affiliates to the contract, whereas Register is for an affiliate to add themselves to a parent company contract.
- Publish Registration: This link allows a customer to publish their contract information to a preferred partner.
Note: Only a customer sees this view and can publish registration information to a partner. When a partner contact sees this link, it is because their company also owns a contract. For instructions, see the Publish Registration information above.
Register
Register>Affiliate Company is for affiliates to add themselves to a parent contract. Contacts who log in with a username associated to the Parent company should not use this option.
Manage Contacts
Manage Contacts allows customers and partners to manage Primary and Secondary contacts on a contract and add contacts to the account.
