Table 1. License Controller
Overview	Reference
The Four Js License Manager (FLM) and License Controller (greWrt) version 6.00 are compatible with GRW 4.00 and greater. The greWrt License controller is now used with GRW 4.00 and greater; the previously used License Controller (grxWrt) is no longer included in the product installation.	See License Genero Report Engine
GRW version 3.20 is not compatible with version 6.00. It requires the grxWrt License controller.	See GRW 3.20 and compatibility with FLM 6.00 and topics in the version 3.20 of the Install and License Genero Report Writer manual
There are enhancements to how the license controller and the DVM synchronize; the communication between the license controller and the FLM is more effective.	No additional reference.
The Genero license controller configuration is no longer implemented by greprofile; instead, a dedicated license controller configuration file is used (grelicense).	See Configure a Genero license controller
There are log configuration enhancements, including options to configure log categories and generate debug logs. Log file names are identified by the license controller name; for example, grewrt.log.	See License logs
Four Js delivers a license string encoding the license details (to include the license number, license key, maintenance or subscription key, and login name.) You can install the license using the `greWrt --install-license-string` option, pasting the string to install the license. Tip: You can create a license string from your existing license details using the `greWrt --encode-license-string` option.	See License Controller (greWrt)
The output from batch mode (`greWrt --batch`) and batch console (`greWrt --batch-console`) commands is written to standard out in JSON format.	See License Controller (greWrt)
