- What are the different roles the various stake holders involved in SAM
- What are the processes involved in the project phase of a vendor
- Defining the publisher
- Assessing inventory quality for the vendor, managing unrecognized applications
- Managing / importing purchases
- "Processing" purchases, creating Software Licenses (Software counters)
- What the run phase means
- Importing new purchase (licenses, maintenance or subscription renewals)
- KPIs to monitor for the publishers already covered to ensure the compliance view delivered by ITAM is accurate and can be trusted.
