Integrating with Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT)

AdminStudio 2021 | 21.0 | Application Manager

You can integrate Application Catalog Analyze with your Microsoft ACT (Application Compatibility Toolkit) database and display ACT test results. ACT is used to create an inventory of an organization’s installed applications, computers, and devices, and to identify and resolve compatibility issues.

To enable AdminStudio to display data from your Microsoft ACT database in Analyze views and reports, perform the following steps.

To view Microsoft ACT data in Analyze views and reports:

1.

Enter connection information for your Microsoft ACT database on the Microsoft ACT tab of the Application Catalog Options dialog box, as described in Entering Microsoft ACT Database Connection Settings.

2.

Open the Analyze tab.

3.

Select a package in the tree that also has associated information in the ACT Database. The Analyze Deployment Type View opens.

4.

Open the ACT Summary tab. Results from the ACT database are displayed on this tab.

5.

Open the Reports tab.

6.

Under Application Catalog Dashboards in the ribbon, select Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit. The Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit Assessment displays.

7.

Review these results, as described in the Microsoft ACT documentation.
