I've been working with the new SLM web console on our Landesk 9.5 test core (our production upgrade to take place next week). I had defined several normalized manufacturers and products, and I'm in the process of preparing CSV files containing license purchase data where I use the normalized products' names in the Associated Product 1, 2, etc. columns of my files.
I got back to work on this today after a few weeks away from it. I opened the spreadsheet I had started, then the SLM web console, since I was at the point of entering the Associated Product column information and wanted to match the names correctly. I was unpleasantly surprised that many of my normalized products and manufacturers were no longer defined.
I am hoping for the best on LANDesk getting the calculation aspect of SLM working correctly, so I intend to use the CSV files on our production core after we upgrade. However, I'm now concerned that time spent defining the normalized products is a waste.
Has anyone experienced this? I there a resolution?
Thanks,
