Specifying Additional Feature Data Using an XML File

You can use an XML file to specify additional feature data for use in Flexera Analytics reports. Using an XML file, you can specify the following feature information:

•

User-friendly feature name—using the displayName attribute.

•

Product family for use in consumptive-token–based reports—using the softwareCategory attribute.

•

Token cost for use in consumptive-token–based reports or cost factor for use in chargeback reports (Feature Chargeback Report or Product Chargeback Report)—using the costFactor attribute.

You can import feature data in the XML file, in one of the following ways:

•

At the command line, using the command importVendorFeatureInfo. The XML file containing the feature information can have any name.

•

By copying an XML file named vendor_feature.xml to the directory <data_dir>\vendorFeatureInfo. The XML file must be named vendor_feature.xml.
