About this task

Reconciliation is run for products that have software entitlements or software installs. Grouping and subgrouping are supported so you can narrow the compliance results.

When running reconciliation manually, allow enough time for the process to complete. For faster results, narrow the scope by selecting specific publishers.

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > Software Asset > Reconciliation > Run Reconciliation and select the publishers for which compliance should be calculated, or select all publishers.
2. To narrow results further, select Group and Subgroup, if desired.
   Available group and subgroup values include None, Country, Department, Company, Region, and Cost Center.
3. Select Continue.
   The reconciliation process may take an extended amount of time to complete. Once reconciliation is complete, the reconciliation results are shown.
