  • 1.  Software Product and covered software licenses

    Posted Sep 24, 2014 03:55 AM

    Hello,

     

    We recently upgraded Altiris to 7.5 and I noticed that there has been some changes in IT asset management regarding software products,licenses and purchases.

    Previously under Manage > Assets you created a Software product, Software license and Software product and made a link between those. So Software Product > Software License > Software Purchase. If i recall correctly when you went to Software Catalog and selected the product, you were able to see in Software Purchases under Licenses tab, but now it doesnt show anything ?? Lincense report shows everything correctly so the association really is there.

    Also i noted that if I create a new software product from Manage > Asset , im not able to see that in software catalog ( i have checked the Include pre-defined software products )

    Is this normal behaviour ?

    I cant rememebr that if you create a license from within the asset structure that the software product license section is automatically created too, or if its the other way round. 

    From what you have described it does seem that it is the other way round, so please try that. 

    Also, if you go to add a license to a software product that you have already created a license for via the asset structure, are you able to select it from the software products add license window?
