Problems renewing SPSS licenses

The renewal of SPSS licenses has been delayed, which means that no one has been able to use SPSS since yesterday. New license keys have arrived and IT Services will distribute them as quickly as possible.

The renewal of SPSS licences has been delayed despite the fact that renewal contracts have been submitted well in advance of the expiry date. This means that neither students nor university staff have been able to use SPSS since yesterday, December 1. The reason for the problems is a change in procedures between the University's licensing partner and the license provider, specifically the procedure for generating codes. 
IT Services has been in touch with the licensing partner, who in turn is in discussion with those responsible at the supplier. Today, on the morning of December 2, IT Services has received the necessary codes and is now working on distributing the codes to the department who use SPSS.
