allocate them to DepartmentQ. There are 20 devices assigned to DepartmentQ. Of those 20 devices,
12 have ProductA installed. The result is that the DepartmentQ allocation shows 15 allocated
licenses with 12 installations.
Effective implementation of demographic allocations requires that the devices in your Management
Zone include the correct demographic data. This data is stored as part of the device's Inventory data;
there are several ways to ensure that devices include the correct data. These methods are discussed
in Chapter 13, "Preparing Demographic Data," on page 113.
A single licensed product can include both types of allocations. For example, DepartmentQ
purchases 15 ProductA licenses. At the same time, your IT organization purchases 10 ProductA
licenses for miscellaneous use throughout the organization. You allocate 15 licenses to DepartmentQ
and then allocate individual licenses (from your pool of 10 IT licenses) to the devices of any other
users who request to install ProductA.
For information about creating allocations, see Chapter 14, "Allocating Licenses," on page 117.
