This article will assist in adding elastic licensing.

Solution

1. You will need to export the Server ID and PIN from licensing.ansys.com If you do not have access to the Ansys Licensing Portal you will need to coordinate with those in your organization who do.
2. On the client PC > Windows Search > search for ANSYS Client License Settings > right click ANSYS Client License Settings and select Run as Administrator. (Not running as Administrator may result in only the current user being configured for elastic licensing or an error saving.) 
   
   Note: License Settings for Electronics is located in C:\Program Files\AnsysEM\vxxx\Win64\licensingclient\winx64. Vxxx is the version you are attempting to use.
    
3. In the left-hand panel click on Elastic Licensing > check Enable Elastic Licensing > then click Import ID and PIN.
   
4. Browse to the exported JSON file and select Open.
5. Click Save in the bottom right corner.
