Conditions for enabling or disabling extensions
The following conditions explains how to manage the enabling or disabling of extensions.

To enable an extension, ensure the other extension is disabled. Enabling one extension will automatically disable the other if it is already enabled.
-
If you disable one of the extensions, all functionalities of that extension are no longer available for use.
If the extension was previously enabled before uninstalling, its status may remain enabled until it is manually adjusted or related extensions are managed.

When the Aptean License Plating extension is enabled, the packaging caption on the Inventory Setup page is License Plate. If the extension is disabled, the field remains blank.
-
The Aptean License Plating extension cannot be disabled if open item ledger entries have a non-blank packaging number. To disable Aptean License Plating extension, ensure that all such records are removed or managed appropriately.
