Hello @qlhrghrrgh , To be totally precise a new SQL view exists in the database that take in following order Charge back cost (and Frequency) Overridden price (frequency = none) Cost of the last software purchase/Quantity per unit So, in the case you describe this is right to reflect in the charge back cost the subscription duration and monthly cost... the Price Per Right does not do this amortization on the raw purchase cost. All optimization or Licence Consumption reports (Purchases and Consumption by location / Corporate Unit / Cost center) will use this new calculation but will not display de frequency. I hope it helps and addresses your question. Best regards, Nicolas  ... View more

Hello  @Murali_Selvaraj  and @erwinlindemann  FlexNet Manager has a SOAP API, ITAM has a SOAP API and (preferred because paginated), a REST API that allow to extract data, using for instance PowerShell scripts. Please find below two pointers that provide example extracting the data: The first article show how to use the ReportsExecute API that and “flatten” and paginates the JSON data… can be very useful for any integration using the REST APIs https://community.flexera.com/t5/FlexNet-Manager-Knowledge-Base/The-New-Generic-ITAM-REST-API-for-querying-any-web-report-is/ta-p/241988 This post shows how storing the data in a staging table opens unlimited automation capabilities. The example here is using the SOAP API (and you can now use the REST API that does the same report output extraction) and has 300 lines of ugly SQL that will allocate the devices to locations based on there IP addresses (with an interesting IP subnet to location automation), then if no success the domain, then  the computer name. https://community.flexera.com/t5/FlexNet-Manager-Knowledge-Base/Allocation-Automation-Example-for-FNMS-Cloud/ta-p/5135 From these sample (in your case, REST API will be better), you can use a PowerShell to generate files in Excel Format (multiple call for each schedule). If you are a full ITAM customer, you can use the native "Policy Engine" feature (using the notification system) that can call the reports using the ReportsExecute REST API. A number of ITAM notifications are proposed out of the box (see below). Hope it helps. Nicolas     ... View more

Hello @MPT123 , hello @Magyours , As a consultant, I was very careful with this MLS  import. There is a system setting to "create directly licenses from recommendations", but again, I would be careful on that. The MLS pivot is interesting to create Purchase Orders that will stand for the active entitlement of the historically purchased and maintained licenses over the time... so, you can take the rows and create Purchase Orders in the PO Import template and import them or create the purchases (and eventually the licenses, but again, I prefer having control by processing the purchases. The big question is: do you have unprocessed purchases created? If the answer is yes, I would simply process them manually. Thanks Nicolas Rousseau Product Manager Flexera - ITAM ... View more
