4. Software Licenses Management
   
   • Installed Applications Summary: Information from all scanned PCs in the local network is grouped in a special view that displays a list of installed applications across the network and a total number of installations for each application.  
   • Reconcile Licenses Report: A special report targeted at reconciliation of software licenses displays all software found in the network with the total number of installations for every application. It compares a number of installed copies and editable number of available licenses to show the count of unused and required licenses for each application and highlight software that has a lack of licenses.  
   • Licenses Change Tracking: Changes in the list of installed applications are automatically tracked and reported to show the list of recently installed and uninstalled applications on network PCs.  
   • Applications Filtering: Software reports can be filtered to exclude items that conforms defined application name masks.  
   • Applications Grouping: By default, aggregated reports make software items grouping by application name. Few items are considered as the same application if they have fully identical name. This approach can be changed by defining custom application name masks to group items with non-identical names and display them in the report as one item.
5. Remote Scan Operations
   
   • Automatic Network Enumeration: Local network is scanned automatically to detect available remote PCs and extract inventory data from them. Supported options include entire local network enumerating to detect PCs in all available domains and workgroup, or enumerating PCs according with defined IP range or domain/workgroup name.  
   • Clientless Remote Inventory: Inventory information is extracted without installation of any client software to remote PCs. Most of asset information from remote PCs can be also retrieved even without WMI enabling.  
   • Inventory Collection Stub: Inventory information can be extracted locally for each PC by execution of stub utility. When stub is executed it generates an export file with inventory information that can be imported to the central database. Stub can be executed by logon script and generated inventory information can be automatically imported from remote PCs.
   • Remote File System and Registry Scan: File system and registry on selected remote PCs can be scanned to get all files, folders, registry keys and values that conforms defined criteria.
   • Auto Processing: Remote inventory can be launched in automatic mode to update assets information after defined time period. Collected data can be used to automatically generate printable report.  
   • Alternative Credentials: Remote inventory requires administrative access to remote PC. In complicated networks structures consists of multiple domains PCs can be configured to have different administrative credentials. To access such network structures administrative credentials can be defined separately for each workgroup, domain or even a particular PC
6. Data Scan Options
   
   • Customizable Set of Data Extracted from Remote PCs: Data set extracted from remote PCs is configurable. It's possible to turn on/off a detection of every particular asset.  
   • Custom Scan Criteria: Remote PCs can be scanned to detect existence of particular file, service or registry key. Found occurrences are reported in the special section in the asset information or can be treated as existence of defined software and included into the list of installed applications.
7. Inventory Data Management
   
   • Changeable Asset Data: All information collected from remote PCs can be manually changed. Additional custom information, such as asset inventory label can be added if required.  
   • Inventory Data Protection: Any asset parameter can be preserved from unwanted changes if it's manually marked as read only. In this case it stays untouched during repeatable inventory scans.  
   • PC Locking: The entire inventory information from particular PC can be marked as read only if PC is locked.  
   • Export Displayed Data: Inventory information is displayed on various forms and dialogs can be exported by one mouse click. It's possible to export to following formats: MS Excel, MS Word, MS Access, PDF, CSV, Text, XML, Clipboard, etc
