Licenses Verified

The Verified Licenses reports list the licenses and whether they match the required license information.

Each time you run the License Verification batch job, the previous loaded verification data are kept, and new data are written to the LICENSE_VERIFY table. This allows you to view previously imported data. You can also compare different import dates.

To select the dates to view, select the Import Date button for a list of imported dates.

Entitled and Not Used

The Entitled and Not Used report displays products that are licensed but are not being used.

Investigate whether these products are still required.
