TZ370 Disabling features

I installed a TZ370 in January of this year (2022). I had setup port forwarding with multiple address objects. Everything was working fine until a few weeks ago. The port forwarding stopped functioning.
Now, when I click on the OBJECT or POLICY menu Icons, I get "Licensing must be activated for this feature".
The firmware is SonicOS 7.0.0-R906.
Do I really need a license to continue to do simple port forwarding?

Actually, licensing should be activated for your device, period. It has nothing to do with a "feature" like port forwarding.
Follow this procedure to synchronize your existing licensing:
Then, I suggest you upgrade your firmware (latest link is shown in this thread):
Afterwards, check to see that you can access the application for which you have enabled port forwarding.
Simple firewall features like Access Rules / NAT policies and so on DO NOT REQUIRE a license.
I would be pretty horrified if that were so. - And it would be the last SNWL we would buy.
We do not run licensing on many units(small remote offices) as we clean VPN them to a Head office unit. That doesn't mean we wouldn't setup any inbound rules!
Is it registered and so on..?
Yes the firewall is registered. Installed in January of 2022. The firmware is SonicOS 7.0.0-R906.
I'm guessing that I should reboot the device to see if the problem persists. Can't do that until Sunday as the client works 6 days a week.
Just read Larry's post. I'll follow that procedure to sync and update the firmware. Thanks!
