Basic and advanced mode license types
You can use the following modes when creating custom license types:
- Basic — Enables you to create connection questions and map these based on the answers entered for the questions when a license certificate is created. In addition to configuring connection information, you can also create compliance questions and actions to determine if you license certificates and CIs are compliant with your licensing agreements, for example, to determine whether or not you have deployed more licenses than you have purchased.

Then the fields are mapped using the license type wizard. This mode allows more flexibility when creating a custom license type.
