Column name | Notes |
---|---|
Category |
The broad function of the application, by default from the UN Standard Products and Services Code. For local applications, this field is editable in the General tab of the application properties. (Additional custom categories can be created in .) |
Classification |
The type of software, especially as it relates to licensing (freeware, commercial and so on). Visible on the General tab of the application properties. It is editable only for applications with a Source value of Local. |
Edition |
The edition of an application, as specified by the publisher of this application. Visible on the General tab of the application properties. It is editable only for applications with a Source value of Local. |
Evidence capability |
Most application evidence is used to identify whether an application is
installed on a device. Some evidence may identify whether the application was accessed by a
user. This column identifies the kinds of evidence so far linked to the application, with
the following values:
Not editable. |
Flexera ID | A generated code that uniquely identifies all application records,
and may be used for integration between products from Flexera. All application records (including those created
locally) include a Flexera ID starting
with the following text:
This data is read-only.
|
Installed |
The count of installations of this application, calculated from evidence
matched in the last imported inventory.
Tip: This count excludes any
installations on inventory devices for which the Status
has been set to Ignored (in the General tab of the inventory
device properties). This is the count of installations on
Active inventory devices.
Counts do not match the evidence. A figure in the Installed column might differ from evidence match counts because more than one piece of evidence may link to a single application. This might happen for applications with multiple installed components (leading to multiple installed evidence matches). For example, if an application is installed as three different components, each generating a file evidence, the evidence match count would be three, but the Installed count would be resolved to one. Counts do not match the license. The Installed count for an application might differ from
the consumption for its associated license for either of these reasons:
The Installed count is not editable, and is recalculated after each inventory import. Access right restrictions — The Installed column displays only the installations you have the right to view. |
Is locked |
Represents the ability to edit the application, based on its source. Displays Yes if the Source of this application is Flexera or Flexera (Extended), and otherwise displays No. Not editable. |
Licensed |
This column indicates whether an installed application is linked to at least one license (either Yes or No is displayed). Editable in the Licenses tab of the application's properties. |

added manually by an operator).

properties when Local is displayed in the

In this page, although all status values are shown when creating filters, applications
must have one of the following status values:
|
Suite |
Displays Yes if this application is a suite (that is, contains child applications), and otherwise No. Remember that a non-suite (has no children) may itself be a member of a suite. For example, Adobe Creative Suite® is a suite, Adobe Photoshop is not, and Photoshop can be a member of Creative Suite. Editable in the Suite and member section of the Evidence tab in the application properties. |
Usage | The count of devices on which inventory shows that usage tracking is turned on, and the application has been used. This data is read-only. |
