# Mapping Bentley Vendor License

The vendor license's default format is typically [server_name];[license_manager]. This mapping file allows administrators to assign a real name to the vendor license and consolidate multiple vendor licenses under a single vendor license.

Apply the configurations shown in the Open iT server.

Open bentley-product-mapping.map in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.

Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.
Specify the feature to rename with the following syntax:
```
MAP: [Combine_VendorLicense_name]   
[Bentley_VendorLicense1]
[Bentley_VendorLicense2]
```
Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-white character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported.
Example
```
MAP: ProjectWise Explorer Client 
ProjectWise Explorer Client V8i
ProjectWise Explorer Client 10.00.01.71
```
This example sets ProjectWise Explorer Client as the new vendor license name for ProjectWise Explorer Client V8i and ProjectWise Explorer Client 10.00.01.71.
Save the changes.

Open bentley-product-mapping.map in the etc directory, which is by default in /var/opt/openit/etc.
