The Application Object has been added to the Business Adapter

IT Asset Management version 2025 R1.1

The Business Adapter has been enhanced to support bulk updates of applications including custom properties.

The aim of this enhancement is to assist SAM Managers using Business Adapter Studio to perform a batch allocation of applications with the addition of populated custom fields to their respective licenses.

The Application object exposes the following properties in the data model for the Business Importer and the Business Adapter Studio:

  • Application Full Name
  • Application Status
  • Application Transparency
  • Application Version
  • Publisher Name.

Among these, only Application Status and Application Transparency are available for update. The remaining properties: Application Full Name, Application Version, and Publisher Name, are used solely for matching purposes and cannot be updated.

The Application object also supports the ability to add and modify custom properties by binding to the SoftwareTitleProperty and SoftwareTitlePropertyValue tables.

For more information on the Application Object and other available objects, see FlexNet Business Importer Data Model in the Using FlexNet Business Adapters documentation.

For information on how to create and edit business adapters, see The Business Adapter Studio documentation in the Using FlexNet Business Adapters documentation.
