Customers currently experience issues with incomplete or missing data in FlexNet Operations Cloud ALM Reporter. This is impacting FlexNet Operations Cloud ALM entitlement, device, and fulfillment data from December 7 th to present. Data up to December 6 th is not impacted by that issue. The reason is an ongoing issue with the ETL job required to transform data to the data warehouse.
NOTE: FlexNet Operations Cloud LLM Reporter is not affected by the issue and has the latest data.
Our team is aware of the issue and is actively working on the analysis and resolution. While more data is being transformed into the data warehouse, the resolution is not complete yet and we do not have an ETA. We will continue to update this post as we have more information.

We’re always on the lookout for ways to enhance your community experience and ensure it is a useful resource for you. We took some time to assess how our community space was organized and found a few areas we could improve.
What is changing?
We are rolling out the following changes to the Code Insight community space to simplify your community experience:
The Public Knowledge Base will be renamed to Code Insight Knowledge Base, and the relevant contents from the Customer Knowledge Base will be merge into this Code Insight Knowledge Base. This single knowledge base structure will make it easier to search for articles related to known product issues and commonly asked questions.
The Public Forum will be renamed Code Insight Forum and will focus on general product questions such as feature capabilities or how-to type questions. All posts on this forum will be publicly visible. Posting and responding will require a community user account.
The Customer Forum threads related to feature capabilities and how-to questions will be moved into the Code Insight Forum.
The previous Customer Forum will be renamed Code Insight Product Discussion. This customer-only discussion board is intended for peer-to-peer and customer-Revenera interactions, to discuss and troubleshoot product concerns and issues raised by customers.
The Customer Forum threads regarding customer specific issues will remain on this Code Insight Product Discussion board.
There are no changes to the Code Insight News and SCA Customer Office Hours community spaces.
When will these changes occur?
We are taking a phased approach to make these changes as quickly as we can, while reducing customer impact. The renaming of the Public and Customer Forums will take place immediately. Their contents will migrate over as we review them.
Similarly, we will rename the Public Knowledge Base immediately, however the contents of the Customer Knowledge Base will migrate to the Code Insight Knowledge Base after the forum data migration is complete.
What is the impact of this change?
There is no significant change to your community experience. You will continue to have access to the spaces you previously had access to, based on your community role.
How do I get access to the customer only spaces?
If you are a Code Insight customer and have not yet registered for the community, please follow the instructions in our How to Create a Revenera Community User Account video. If you are a Code Insight customer and are unable to access the customer spaces, please contact the Revenera Technical Support team for assistance.
Whom do I contact if I have questions about the upcoming changes?
If you have any questions about the changes to the Code Insight community spaces, please post them on the Code Insight Forum, or you can get in touch with your Revenera contact.

Hi @Glovius,
At this time we do not have a forum for our Usage Intelligence product. It is something we are considering in the future. If a forum is something you feel would be useful, I'll take that feedback to our product team.
In the meantime, if you have any question or run into issues, please reach out to the Revenera Technical Support team using our online case portal under Revenera Community -> Get Support -> Open New Case and they will be happy to assist you.

Effective immediately, we are discontinuing InstallShield Lite and the product has been removed from the Visual Studio Marketplace. This post provides InstallShield Lite customers information on how this change impacts them and offers guidance on how to move forward.
What does InstallShield Lite being discontinued mean? InstallShield Lite being discontinued means no future versions will be released. It also means, the current version of InstallShield Lite will no longer be available for download.
What does this mean for existing InstallShield Lite customers? InstallShield Lite customers can continue using the current version of InstallShield Lite that they have. However, as there will be no updates to InstallShield Lite, any product or version compatibility issues identified, will not be addressed.
Customers are welcome to assist each other with product questions by posting on the InstallShield Forum of the Revenera Community. Note, posting on the forum requires a Revenera Community login.
What should customers do if they need to support a later version of Microsoft Visual Studios? We recommend customers upgrade to one of the supported InstallShield editions. To help you decide between the InstallShield editions, please visit our Compare Editions page, then sign up to evaluate the edition that best suits your installation needs.

The FlexNet Operations Cloud 2020 R3 SP3 is now live on the Production environment. As a reminder, here are the highlights of this release.
For FlexNet Operations Cloud 2020 R3 SP3 ALM the following features and enhancements have been added:
Device Management A device-centric view of downloads can be enabled and offers users the ability to not only see the Electronic Software Delivery (ESD) downloads applicable to the device, but also download those contents directly from the device view.
Updates and Insights Producers can now log events to capture valuable information about how their software is being used, new feature adoption, and device status details. (NOTE: Event logging requires the Updates and Insights paid module.)
Download Manager The Download Manager now has the capability to obtain the proxy server configuration settings required to support downloads from an end user system, configured to use a proxy server. Eliminating the need for the end user to manually provide the proxy server settings to the Download Manager, it offers a more seamless user experience.
Additional Enhancements The release also includes several enhancements that improve usability and expands on existing functionality.
The getDevice web service can now return the device creation date.
The last modified date for email template content changes is now displayed with the new Date Modified column on the List Email Templates and List All Versions pages.
Producers can customize their end user login page by adding a custom message to better serve their users.
For more information about this release, please review the FlexNet Operations Cloud 2020 R3 SP3 ALM Release Notes.

We're happy to announce the release of FlexNet Operations On-Premises 2020 R1.1. This email includes release highlights, product download information, and other product resources. In this release, you can look forward to the following enhancements:
Cloud Licensing Service Support for latest Cloud Licensing Service (CLS) has been added in this release. The Cloud Licensing Service (CLS) introduces support for the feature partitioning capability.
Feature partitioning gives enterprise license administrators control over their license pools. By defining feature partitioning models, they can allow, deny, prioritize, or limit hosts' ability to use their organizations' licenses. They can better allocate license pools between geographies, divisions, or any other cohort they want to build. This ensures continuity of a team's ability to obtain licenses when they need them, by preventing the licenses from being consumed by non-prioritized groups.
Electronic Software Delivery This release introduces support for Electronic Software Delivery (ESD). With Electronic Software Delivery, you can seamlessly and securely deliver your products to eligible customers.
Infrastructure
To ensure the security of our product, we have upgraded our version of Apache Struts to 2.5.22. This version of Apache Struts includes fixes to security issues raised in previous versions.
FlexNet Operations On-Premises supports Microsoft SQL database. There is no support for Oracle database. If you are currently running FlexNet Operations on premises on an Oracle database, please contact your Revenera Customer Success or Account Manager to discuss database migration options.
For more information about the release, please see the FlexNet Operations On-Premises 2020 R1.1 Release Notes on our Documentation site.
Product Download
The FlexNet Operations 2020 R1.1 product is available for download on the Product and License Center of the Revenera Community.
NOTE: A Revenera Community account is required to download from the Product and License Center. If you do not have an account, please see our community training videos below for guidance.
