Understanding Licenses

Software license management guarantees license compliance and optimizes license utilization. Software

Product records help you manage your licenses for that particular software. For example, you can have a

Software Product record for Microsoft Windows 7 and manage all the licenses you own for this product from

the single record.

Request Manager provides nine Software Product records out of the box. You can edit these records, as well

as add new Software Products.

Create a Software Product

You can create a Software Product to help manage licenses for a particular product.

Prerequisites

Procedure

1 Click CMDB Items in the Request Manager Admin Portal.
