What is a PatentOptimizer® Client ID?

If you are set up in the LexisNexis Account Control (LNAC) application, a Client ID is a value you can use to monitor your activities during your PatentOptimizer sessions. Each time you sign in to the application, the Client ID displays at the top of the home screen with the default value Client: -None.

You can maintain up to 10 Client IDs at a time, and use each to track unique activities. After you define multiple IDs, you select the desired ID you want to use at the start of each application session. Each time you sign in and select the Client drop-down list, you will see the following:

  • The most recently used Client ID is displayed at the top of the list.
  • The least used Client ID is displayed at the bottom of the list.
  • If you have 10 Client IDs and add a new one, the least used ID drops off the list and the new one becomes the active ID and moves to the top of the list.

In addition to this, the LexisNexis PowerInvoice™ application can also use Client IDs to track account-billing information.
