For installation on client-operated machines be sure to specify type of license, location code, name of the user and machinename. The IT-department can then add the program to the computer. If the program should be installed in a PC-lab, we need information about the building and room number.

| === Termination of license ===
| |
| | |
| If someone with Stata on their machine quits, the license may either be passed on to another machine with another user or the Dept notifies the IT department that they have a license that they will not pay for. The license is then removed from the machine, and the IT department will be able to offer the license to others. One can not under any circumstances keep Stata on compters if one stop working at UiB. If one has installed Stata manually, the program must be uninstalled because the license is no longer valid.
