Ignoring License-Type Recommendations

When you reject or overwrite a license-type recommendation in the Process License Recommendations report, you can select to ignore the recommendations.

To ignore a license-type recommendation:

2. Click Reject or Overwrite. For more information on these options, see Rejecting License-Type Recommendations and Overwriting License-Type Recommendations, respectively.
   Depending on your selection, the Ignore Recommendation or Overwrite Recommendation dialog displays.
3. In the Reason field, enter a reason for rejection or overwriting the recommendation. If you selected Overwrite in step 2, enter a new license type.
4. Select from the following options to specify whether future recommendations for this user should be ignored:
   • Ignore indefinitely — This is the default setting. All future recommendations will be ignored indefinitely.
   • Ignore until — Enter a date to indicate until when recommendations should be ignored.
   • Do not ignore — Select this option if recommendations should not be ignored in the future.
5. Click OK.
