Software license expiry date under Consumption tab in licenses

 

How can we add/update the software license expiry date from the UI of FlexeraOne. This field is currently disabled for edit through the UI. While creating the license key there is no option to add the expiry date and associate it with the license key. The only known options available is to do it through business adapter of software license key or through flexera api which a general flexera user won't be able to use. Any solution to do it through the UI would be helpful.

A separate question is what does the field "Number allocated" present in business adapter of software license key stands for and what is its purpose and how can it be used. This field is not visible under the consumption tab.

Thanks

The "Software license expiry date" column is a new column that is in the process of being added to Flexera One ITAM. I understand at this point it is intended to be populated by integrations with ITSM workflows that use the license allocation API - it is not a field exposed for editing through the web UI at this time.

I think the "Number allocated" is a column available in the Consumption grid for some license types - it does not apply to all license types. It can be used to manually enter how many licenses a particular allocated device/user consumes.
