Ah, okay, so you are using cloud solution... You won't be the DBOwner in this case and cannot create the new entries all by yourself. This needs to be requested. My solution is valid when you are DBOwner.

There are couple of things you may choose to do with such POs. - You may create local evidence and tag them to your Mainframe systems to do a manual compliance balance by creating licenses using these POs - You may simply select such POs and Defer them, let them sit there till eternity if you do not use Deferred box - You may create a Business Adapter for all these purchases and give them a different type (solution is in your other post) I couldn't understand your second point, "Create a PO without an application for these purchases." Do you mean to create a License using such PO without an application? Well, you may, but there is no point creating more junk out of junk. All the best!

Hi, Yes, you can create as many types as you may need. You should use a Business Adapter for the purpose and feed it with data. In "Purchase Type", select the field that provides you with the required Type. All the Best

Thanks Fawad 🙂 From the part of the log, it seems more of network related challenge than the credential. My suggestion would be to review the configuration of the target server to validate the port number it is expecting. Inspect the rule used to discover, and (probably) collect inventory from, this target device. Check the action within this rule, and make sure that, in the VMware infrastructure section, Discover VMware infrastructure remains checked and that the port used on the target device is included in the list of ports. Run telnet to ensure port connectivity.

I believe you would have already ensured the general stuff like ports, credentials etc. Is this vCenter in cloud, by any chance, like GCP?

Ah, I missed on the specific custom field. For us, as the tool is on-prem solution, hence, I was planning to create an additional field for UI for ComplianceComputerID to expose it. Further, if we remove [IsCustomField="True"] then the adapter would become deprecated. I'd share my findings as I get past this one.

Here is one, where the intention is to use ComplainceComputerID to update the status: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <root> <ManageSoft connectiontype="default" ConnectionString="Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=FNMSCompliance;Data Source=DBServer" runintransaction="False" /> <Imports> <Import Type="CSV" Delimiter="Comma" Name="Import1" Template="" Enabled="False" ConnectionString="Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=ADDRESSforXML;Extended Properties='text;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited'" Query="select * from [test.csv]" FileName="ADDRESSforXML\test.csv" TraceActions="created,deleted,updated,rejected"> <Object Type="Computer" Name="Computer" Update="True" Create="False" OutputField="Computer_ID"> <Property Type="ComplianceComputerID" Name="ComplianceComputerID" Update="Do not blank" ValueType="Field Value" Value="ComplianceComputerID" UseForMatching="True" IsCustomField="True" /> <Property Type="compliancecomputerstatus" Name="Status" Update="Do not blank" ValueType="Field Value" Value="Status" Length="250" /> </Object> </Import> </Imports> </root>

There used to be a way to customize the XML as explained on URL below:
Solved: Re: Business Adapter Studio - matching with ComplianceComputerID instead of ComputerName - Community (flexera.com)
However, this method is declared as deprecated and does not work anymore. You would see a Red X against the name of custom field. Unless you add "IsCustomField="True" the adapter won't work, and if you do add it, then the system would through the same error. Am still researching on a way to accomplish it.
