        <h3>License Manager's Implicit and Explicit Entries in the Usage Log File </h3>
        <p>The License Manager can  record all license requests 
 and releases in the usage 
 log file.   These license request and release entries could be a result of:</p>
        <ul>
            <li class="Bullets_1" value="1">Application invoked API calls that request/release license, are referred as explicit entries or records. </li>
            <li class="Bullets_1" value="2">License Manager invoked license request/release calls, are referred as implicit entries or records. </li>
        </ul>
        <p class="SFNT_Note">Since v8.5.3, the License Manager implicit entries will also include log comments, if any inserted by your vendor in the API calls. The comment in a record would belong to the last API called, having the log comment. The comment may be in anonymized or in unanonymized state, depending on the settings your vendor and system administrator have chosen.</p>
