Assigning a contract to applicable computers
If you purchase a license for an organization that is part of your company (for example,
HR), you can create a computer group that represents this organization and assign this group
to your contract. You can find more information about computer groups at Setting up computer groups.
Note: In order to
enable calculating license metrics for this group, this group must have license calculation
enabled.
Once the computer group is created, you can add it to a contract.
Note: By default, metrics are calculated for 90 days and on 'All
Metrics' panel you can see a maximum value of a metric in that period and this maximum value
is used to compare contract with the calculated metrics. If you like to use a shorter
period, you can create a Computer Group and configure it to lower number of aggregated days
to, for example, one day. The shorter period may be useful if you like to see more current
value of a license metric than the maximum value for last 90 days in the contracts.
