About Software ID Tag File Generation
AdminStudio 2021 R2 | 22.0 | Application Manager
AdminStudio includes ISO/IEC 19770-2 software tagging support. ISO/IEC 19770-2 is an international standard for the creation of software identification tags, which are small, XML-based files that contain descriptive information about a software package. This information is used by software asset management tools to identify the software that is installed in an enterprise.
AdminStudio adds software ID tag files to Windows Installer packages whenever Repackager builds a Windows Installer package or when packages are imported into the Application Catalog (or when an Application Catalog is upgraded).
Information about software ID tag files is presented in the following sections
