Solved: Component vs Application

caldwellb · ‎Jan 03, 2023

Where component is identified how does one review the parent application it is related to? For example HCL's BigFix Server Inventory shows as "Commercial" and the associated agents show as "Component" We have a need to identify the relationships for software vetting, decommissioning and more

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

The relationship between components and applications that use them is not currently modelled in the ARL or Technopedia.

This is a query that I have heard come up from time to time, so you may want to consider raising it as an Idea in Flexera Ideas (https://flexerasfdc.ideas.aha.io/ideas). This will allow others to vote on it, and help Flexera's Product Managers assess the level of interest there would be in having a curated data set showing this kind of information.
