## General Tab

The General Tab is the tab on the License Project Properties dialog where you define general details for the license. To get to it, open a license project file in the SoftwareShield License Manager and click on "General".

The tab looks like this:

While all the fields here are optional, we highly recommend that you fill out these fields accurately every time you redistribute your license.

The Host Product field is for the name of the application you are creating the license for. The Description is a brief description of the host product and should include an up-to-date version number. These fields are not used internally by the license or the ClientProtector

The Serial Number field is for your reference only and is not used internally by the license or the ClientProtector. This field is optional.

User Details fields are all for your reference only and are not used by the license or the ClientProtector. They are all optional. You may wish to fill out these details if you know exactly who the license is for or leave them blank if not.

All these fields can be accessed and persisted by your application at run time through the ClientProtector (See: ClientProtector Reference)
