# When is the LastAccessedDate field updated

Each QLM License record contains a field called LastAccessedDate (LAD).&#x20;

Despite its name, this field is not updated whenever a record is accessed. A more appropriate name for this field would have been LastModifiedDate. The  LAD is updated in the following cases:

* When the license is initially created.
* When the license is activated.
* When the license is released (deactivated).
* When the license is updated/upgraded.
* When the license expiry date is extended.
* When the license is revoked.

As of QLM v15, any change to license information by editing a license in the QLM Management Console, in the QLM Portal or by calling the [UpdateLicenseInfo](/docs/api-reference/.net-api/qlmlicense/management-methods/updatelicenseinfo.md) API will update the LastAccessedDate. Additionally, extending the expiry date of a license automatically updates the Computer Key of the activated licenses and hence updates the LAD. This feature must be enabled by setting the server property options/updateLastAccessedDateAfterAnyEdit to true.

If you are interested in tracking when a customer last accessed your application, you should check out QLM Enterprise Analytics feature set.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.soraco.co/docs/faq/when-is-the-lastaccesseddate-field-updated.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
