Change Usage time frame on software license Summary tabs

Right now (in v6) on the Software License records, on the Summary tab, the Usage section shows counts for the current month and the previous month. The current month is not worthwhile if you're only 2 days into a month; you're left with only one month of data to make decisions with.

Is it possible to change the fields to past 30 days and another 30 days after that, so you have a total of 60 running days to work with?

Agreed

The month-based calculation provided is not as useful as a last 30/60/90 day calculation would be.  The same goes for the Primary User calculations.

It would be a lot easier for us to work these things up ourselves if we had access to an entity relationship diagram for Altiris.

 Certainly it would be

 Certainly it would be helpful, if the "Summary" tab could be customized. Having a drop-down box to decide the reporting period of App. Metering data would be appreciated.
