I'm not sure what you're asking here.

A perpetual software license is a software license agreement that has an "infinite" term, does not expire, or in some cases, automatically renews itself, if so required.

Some software licenses have a term, like "30 days," "12 months," etc.

A software license agreement functions in a similar capacity to a lease, or rental agreement. It defines how, how long, where, when, etc, a software application can be used and copied.

A "software purchase" is the purchase of a software license. When you purchase software, you are purchasing the right to "use," more specifically load the software in the form of a derivative copy.

Sometimes, the software you purchase has a "perpetual license." Sometimes, it does not.
