Licensing by task (For more information please read the Licensing White Paper in the Evals & Downloads section):

Designing Reports: Each Crystal Reports package includes one named user license that allows a single individual to install the Crystal Reports designer on his/her local machine to create reports. You may not share this license among multiple individuals.

Integrating Reports into Thick-Client Windows Applications: Crystal Reports includes more than 750 royalty-free runtime APIs that you can integrate into your thick-client Windows applications to enable a variety of capabilities including report viewing, printing, and exporting. From a licensing perspective, you may use these APIs within your applications for internal corporate deployment and/or redistribution to third parties without additional licensing requirements.

For COM developers, there is one minor exception to the above guideline; if you use any of the report creation APIs available in the report designer component (RDC) for a thick-client application that will be redistributed to third parties, you must purchase a copy of Crystal Reports Developer Edition for each company you redistribute your application to.

Integrating Reports into Client-Server or Web Applications Using the Java, .NET, or COM Components: The Java, .NET, and COM reporting components are designed for deploying internal applications that service a small community with simple to moderate reporting requirements. These components are installed on the same server as your web application server.

Licensing for internal corporate deployments: Crystal Reports XI now includes free runtime licensing that allows for unlimited internal corporate deployment of the Java, .NET, and COM reporting components. This means you can build, deploy, and scale these components across multiple servers or processors without additional licensing fees.

Licensing for external redistribution to third parties: If you build client-server or web applications that will be redistributed, sold, or deployed to a third party, you must purchase a copy of Crystal Reports Developer Edition for each company you redistribute to.

Using Crystal Reports Server
New in Crystal Reports XI, Crystal Reports Server XI offers a complete set of reporting services for Java, .NET, and COM application development. You can use Crystal Reports Server as a central reporting platform for multiple web applications. You can also offload report processing from your web application server to a separate server machine for more efficient processing. SDKs are included so you can easily integrate reporting functionality in your applications.

Licensing for internal corporate deployment: End-user report viewing is licensed through concurrent access licenses (CAL). This means that a set number of end users can simultaneously connect to Crystal Reports Server. For example, a five CAL license enables five end users to be simultaneously logged on to the system. The sixth end user that attempts to log on will be denied access until one of the first five user logs off of his/her session times out.
Note: By default, the system is set with a default session time-out o-f twenty minutes. This may be adjusted in the Central Management Console

For each Crystal Reports Server deployment in your organization, you may purchase a maximum of twenty CAL. You may deploy Crystal Reports Server on a single server machine that uses a maximum of four CPUs. This machine may be deployed separately from your web application server.

Licensing for external redistribution to third parties: In addition to the licensing terms outlined in the above section, if you would like to redistribute a client-server or web application that uses Crystal Reports Server, you must purchase a copy of Crystal Reports Server for each company you redistribute to.
