Solution

This error occurs because the local License Utility has been used to activate a network 
license instead of the Network License Utility.  A network license can only be activated using 
the Network License Utility, therefore launch the Network License Utility and follow the on
screen instructions to activate the network license.  
The Network License Utility is installed with Network License Manager, and is a separate 
piece of software and will need to be downloaded and installed separately to the Opcenter 
APS (Preactor) installation. 
Network License Manager can be downloaded from Support Center by selecting the 
Opcenter APS product, and then clicking on the Downloads tile.  Network License Manager is 
fully backwards compatible, so choose the latest version of Opcenter APS available.  The 
name of the download file will be, for example, OpcenterAPSNLM18.3.0.5475-x86.exe
