    Hi Satya,

    Why do you need to? If you start using a particular tool, it will check out a license. If you stop using it, it should check the license in. You can also check out a license using the Options->License form (although there is no longer the ability to force a checkin from here - it was being abused, and the right thing to do is for the tool to free up the license when  you're no longer using the capability; if you force a license checkin whilst still using the tool, it can cause issues).

    If you want licenses to be freed up when they are idle, look at the TIMEOUT options that can be set in the license daemon (covered in the Licensing manual).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
