I am creating a new software model for a software product called “SAP BusinessObjects”. I have been provided with a version number, lets call it 10.435.03.001. When creating the software model, if I choose “SAP BusinessObjects” in the Discovery Map, the version number is set to read only. When I set the Discovery Map field to blank, then I am able to add version number.
What am I missing here? Should I be educated on something? What is the best practice?

The chosen DMAP will be the Software Model's publisher, product, version and edition.
If you choose the DMAP
Software Title: SAP BusinessObjects
Publisher: SAP
Product: BusinessObjects
Version: Blank/Anything
Edition: Blank/Anything
You will generate a software model for
Software Model Display Name: SAP BusinessObjects
Publisher: SAP
Product: BusinessObjects
Version: Blank/Anything
Edition: Blank/Anything
If you choose a DMAP for
Software Title: SAP BusinessObjects 14.2
You will generate a Software Model for
Publisher: SAP
Product: BusinessObjects
Version: 14.2
Edition: Blank/Anything
In short, DMAP will override/overwrite the software model information.

@VQZN - Thanks for taking interest in my question.
I added a DMAP to a specific model days ago but I am not seeing the version getting populated until now. Is there something that’s not happening ? Like, for example , is a discovery or a normalization or a reconciliation job not running? What do I check and where?
