===== Client Program (PRO) =====
An installation of the PRO version includes up to 3 parts:
- **Installation Microsoft (r) SQL-Server:** Reitec.PMM (PRO) can be run with an Access database or a Microsoft SQL-Server database, if you are using the SQL-Server you need to install it before you install the client program. For instructions of installing the SQL-Server, see: [[installation#Database Microsoft SQL-Server Express|Database Microsoft SQL-Server Express]].
- **Installation Reitec.LicenseService:** The Pro version of Reitec.PMM requires an active Reitec.LicenseService to retrieve a license (only network licensing). The license service can be installed locally as part of the client installation or, alternatively, separately on a central server. For instructions on installing the Reitec.LicenseService on a central server, see: [[license:start|Reitec.LicenseService]]
- **Installation Client Program:** The client installation includes the actual program and must be installed on every computer on which Reitec.PMM is to be used. As part of the installation, the Reitec.LicenseService can also be installed and the SQL-Server database can be initialized. Please refer to the following section for installation instructions.
