Setting the license type for the SimUnit license model

To locate the job editor, select Job Edit jobname from the main menu bar. Use the SIM Unit Licensing options in the Submission tabbed page to choose license options for your analysis job execution.

The SIM Unit Licensing options are enabled when you use the SimUnit license model or when Abaqus/CAE is launched by the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform Connector for Abaqus/CAE. For all other cases, these options are disabled. If you are using the Abaqus Learning Edition, this option is not available.
