Multiple VLK's and a single installation point?

R

Richard Perry

My company has made multiple individual purchases of the Office 2003 suite.
Each purchase has come with a different VLK. My question is, does it really
matter which VLK is used to install the software as long as all VLKs are
legal and copies of the valid licenses are available?

It does to the BSA if you are ever audited. I would document very carefully
what license belongs to which machine or use a software package to perform
the license/software inventory.

That mostly makes sense to me. However, I don't think that I fully
understand.

If we maintain paper records for each computer, and say purchase 200
licenses under one VLK, and purchase another 50 under another VLK, Must I
create two installations, one for the 200 licenses, and one for the 50? Or
can I maintain a single installation, with a single VLK, and install it on
all 250 machines?
