License Entitlements

For Normal Licensed Products: The License Entitlements page displays the entitlements for the licensed product. Typically, each entitlement represents a license agreement associated with the licensed product. The entitlement contains information defined in the agreement, such as the product version covered, the number of licenses, and the installation scope (machine, user, enterprise, site, and so forth).

For example, if ProductA is your licensed product, you might have an OEM entitlement to represent 15 ProductA licenses obtained through OEM agreements. You might also have a Per-Installation entitlement that represents the ProductA licenses obtained through a site agreement.

This page includes the following panels:

Entitlements (Consumption Data Source: Inventory): Lets you manage license entitlements that use product installations discovered by Inventory scans to determine the number of consumed licenses.
Entitlements (Consumption Data Source: Manual): Lets you manage license entitlements that use manually entered installation data to determine the number of consumed licenses.

For LIS (Licensed Information Sources) Licensed Product: This page displays the entitlements for an LIS licensed product.
