Intelligent license restriction

Note:This feature is available with IT Asset Management.

The new Intelligent License Restriction feature, allows you to link licenses to Device Groups or User Groups to minimize the manual efforts of allocating devices to licenses.

IT Asset Management already has the ability to restrict licenses per entity, and for rare license types per OS type (server versus device). This existing functionality has been expanded upon to include Computer Groups and User Groups. For example, you can now link a report to a license to only allow inventory devices in that report to consume from that particular license.

Applying this restriction, empowers SAM managers to influence the scope of license coverage in a more automated way, and prevents spending large amounts of time manually allocating license consumptions.

For more details on Intelligent License Restriction, see the section “Link a report to a license to only allow inventory devices or users in that report to consume from that license” in Restrictions Tab.
