Problem

A certificate issued by Bentley for the ProjectWise - MS Office Integrations will expire on 5/2/2012.  

How will this be re-mediated?  I imagine we will  have to push a new certificate to all PCs that have ProjectWise installed on them.   Is there a better method? When can Bentley supply us a new certificate?  If a new certificate is not issued before the expiration date, what are the consequences to the user?

Solution

No risk to users with this.  Certificate are typically valid for a year, but they continue to do their jobs after they expire.  Most accounts won’t even see this due to their certificate policies.
It is possible that in certain situations group policy might  prevent use of the macros with an expired certificate”.
As far as I can tell there should not be a problem installing the software with an expired certificate.
