Hi Natalie, here is an example we have AutoCAD. We switched it from user to named user. After reconcile, it recommended moving to user. It keeps switching between the two as recommendations. How do we handle this? It provides some reasoning for the change, but doesn't really help me make a decision one way or the other.

I am trying to create a Cognos report that shows me my license consumption separated by Desktop and Servers. I have a report that goes to the publisher and application level, but how do I separate these so that I can see all my servers ONLY, OR all my desktops ONLY. Screenshot attached of my current report.

When using App Portal/App Broker, I want to include and exclude certain parts of the organization. For example, there might be certain parts of the organization being divested. What is the best way to segregate user access in App Portal by groups of people so that we can either include all and then exclude by exception, or exclude all and include by exception. The domain name is the same for all users - what is the best way to separate them out in AD?

For Microsoft, license type Microsoft Server Core was selected. FNMS recommended a move to Core Point licenses. My question here - is there a way to view why a change is being recommended? Do we provide reasons why certain recommendations are being made? Thank you!

Is there a way to run a report on Unrecognized Evidence? I'm currently running a report on Installed Devices (Using the Installations metric), which gives me a device name for all computers running a software title by version. Is this possible using Unrecognized Evidence as well?

We are going to start using O365 data in FNMS, for which we had a few questions to turn on the connector. 1. Is the data connection encrypted between FNMS and Microsoft? 2. Can the powershell script for O365 be requested? 3. What level of access is needed to pull in the Microsoft data - which roles? Thank you! Akshay

I also found this blog by Flexera - while it is many years old, the concepts are still relevant today. https://blogs.flexera.com/elo/2012/12/make-software-chargeback-work-for-your-organization/

Owning FNMS Cloud and App Portal, I want to define best practices for chargeback. Do we have recommendations on best practices for chargeback? What process should be in place, what fields can be used to define the department being charged back, and is there a way to leverage FNMS and App Portal for chargeback automation? Thank you.
