The Oracle licensing model is actually fairly simple. The Oracle Master Agreement (OMA) states:

"Application User: is defined as an individual authorized by you to use the APPLICABLE licenced application programs which are installed on a single server or on multiple servers regardless of whether the individual is actively using the programs at any given time."

which is a drawn out WAY of saying you have a licence for a user to use the application regardless of environment.

In practical terms this has the following consequences:

A single licence permits a user to use a copy of the software on multiple machines (for example a server and a laptop) provided that the various copies are not accessed by that user at the same time. If the laptop is also used by a different user to the server then this requires two LICENCES.

Use of any component within a licenced application counts as full use of that application, so for example an environment where two people only accessed P6 EPPM via the Web while another only used the desktop Optional Client would require three EPPM licences. This differs from the old PRIMAVERA scheme where individual modules/components were licenced separately

You cannot make use of generic users like "user1" or "planner", since a login has to correspond to a real individual.
