Is there a way to have manual scans on servers and have them uploaded in FNSM application

You can review Chapter 4 in the FNMS System Reference Guide - "Importing Inventory Spreadsheets and CSV Files". Note that this method is not for the novice user and may require some professional services work.

@pkadam73 : For this case you can use the FlexNet Inventory Scanner as described in the documentation in section 5 (page: 112)
We use it usually for testing purposes or if an agent installation is not allowed.
It can also upload results to one of your beacons if a connection is possible, otherwise you can copy the scan results manually to an inventory incoming folder on a beacon.

@pkadam73 - No, there is no support for AS/400 by the FlexNet Agent in whatever method you run the agent. The recommendation is to use another inventory tool that supports the AS/400 platform and then import that inventory into FlexNet Manager.

Can you be a little more specific in request. Do you have network connectivity between server and Flexera beacon?
If I understand right you don't want to install the agent, in this case you can use the core of the agent ndtrack.exe for windows, using a scheduled task and run the ndtrack.exe and upload the inventory. This can be done in the following way:
Inventories:
ndtrack.exe -o UploadLocation="http://InventoryBeacon/ManageSoftRL"
Same purpose on a UNIX-like platform:
ndtrack -o UploadLocation="http://InventoryBeacon/ManageSoftRL"
Same purpose using FlexNet Inventory Scanner on Microsoft Windows (for this executable on this platform, the
-o Upload="true" option, including the use of the double quotation marks, is mandatory):
FlexeraInventoryScanner.exe
-o UploadLocation="http://InventoryBeacon/ManageSoftRL"
-o Upload="true"
And same purpose using ndtrack.sh as a scanner on UNIX-like platforms:
ndtrack.sh -o UploadLocation="http://InventoryBeacon/ManageSoftRL"
Check ndtrack command line page 216
