Recognition Data Import

The Recognition data import scheduled task runs the application recognition and SKU library update tool. This tool downloads updates to the Application Recognition Library (ARL), Stock Keeping Unit library, and Product Use Rights Library (PURL) from the Flexera website into IT Asset Management.

You can use the Windows Scheduled Tasks system tool to modify the timing of the scheduled task or to modify the command-line options used with the update tool (MgsImportRecognition.exe). For more information, see the Downloading the IT Asset Management Content Libraries Manually article, located in the Flexera Community Knowledge Base.

Run by: Microsoft Task Scheduler.

Default schedule: Disabled by default, but set to run weekly at 1:00:00 (24-hour format) each Sunday if enabled. If you are happy for updates to occur weekly, enable this task. If you prefer to control when updates occur, leave it disabled and execute it manually at times convenient to you.

Default command line:

"Prog-Drive:\Program Files\ManageSoft\Common\ndcrproc.exe"

-e "Prog-Drive:\Program Files\ManageSoft\DotNet\bin\MgsImportRecognition.exe"

-l "Prog-Drive:\Program Files\ManageSoft\DotNet\bin\MgsImportRecognition.exe" -o CREATE_NO_WINDOW=True
