Reading the report

The following columns (listed alphabetically) are available in this list. By default, some are available through the column chooser.

Application name

The application's name, which may be:

• Set by the Application Recognition Library, and not editable (for applications with Source: Flexera)
• Derived from the evidence values for Product, Version, and Edition properties (when generated by IT Asset Management), and editable to suit your corporate standards.

Edition

The edition of an application. These editions, for example, Lite or Pro, describe different levels or groupings of functionality.

Visible on the General tab of the application properties. It is editable only for applications with a Source value of Local.

Installed count

The count of installations of this application, calculated from evidence matched in the last imported inventory.

Not editable. The installed count is recalculated after each inventory import.

Publisher

The name of the publisher of this software, responsible for its development and distribution.

Visible in the General tab of the application properties. Editable for applications with a Source value of Local.

Used count

The count of devices on which inventory shows that usage tracking is turned on, and the application has been used.

Tip: This is the number of devices showing usage in the Devices tab of the application properties, and is filtered by the thresholds set in the Usage tab of the same application properties. Devices where applications are opened less often, or for shorter times, than specified there are not counted here; but for usage tracked in Flexera inventory, may be checked in the Raw Software Usage page (where no thresholds apply).

Not editable.

Version

The release number (or release identifier) of an application.

Visible in the Version field in General tab of the application properties. Editable for applications with a Source value of Local. For applications from the Application Recognition Library, it is not editable.
