Installing software from the Self Service Portal

Before you begin

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Self Service Portal.
  2. If you enabled the Mobile Device Management Self Service Portal, click Available Software tab.
  3. Click a computer to view the available software for that computer.
    Note: Previously installed software is still shown in the list with the following status: "pending", "success", or "fail". The reason for retaining the software in the offer list is to provide you with the option for reinstallation.
  4. Select the available software that you want to install.
    Note: The list of software might not contain the changes that are made by your administrator during your current login session. You can see the changes only after you log out and log in again.
  5. Click Install.
