If an activation request sent by a Manufacturing Connect Edge instance is rejected by a Manufacturing Connect, you must first delete the rejected activation request in Manufacturing Connect before the same Manufacturing Connect Edge instance can re-attempt the activation code.

Failed Activation Request

Once an activation request is sent by a Manufacturing Connect Edge, approving (activating) it may become unsuccessful. See the following error messages for possible resolutions.
