Displays the maximum number of concurrent xTuple client connections you are licensed to have, as per the terms of your xTuple license agreement. xTuple client connections are connections made from xTuple ERP, xTuple Connect, and/or any other xTuple-branded client software. Allowance is also made for an equal number of external connections made by non-xTuple clients (e.g., pgAdmin, etc.). For example, if you have 10 licensed users, then you may have at any one time a maximum of 20 total connections (i.e., 10 xTuple client connections + 10 external connections).
