There are two methods you can use to create a licensed product:
You can manually create a licensed product. You then need to create the licensed product’s entitlements and add catalog products and discovered products.
You can use the Auto-Reconcile Wizard to create a licensed product from a discovered product. During the process, you create an entitlement and reconcile any catalog products (identified by the wizard as possible matches for the licensed product) to the licensed product. The wizard can create multiple licensed products at one time.
Refer to the following sections for instructions:
In ZENworks Control Center, click the
tab.On the License Management page, click
.Click
to launch the Create New Licensed Product Wizard.On the General Information page, fill in the following fields:
Manufacturer (Optional): The manufacturer of the product.
Licensed Product (Required): The name of the product.

, review the information on the New Licensed Product Summary page, then click to add the product to the Licensed Products list.Configure the licensed product by completing these additional tasks:
Create one or more entitlements. See Section 7.2, Creating an Entitlement.
Add catalog products to the entitlements. See Section 7.3, Adding Catalog Products.
Add discovered products to the entitlements. See Section 7.5, Adding Discovered Products.
Specify the users or devices covered by the entitlements. See Section 7.6, Specifying User and Device Coverage.
The Auto-Reconcile Wizard creates licensed products from discovered products. The wizard does the following:
Lets you select the discovered product from which you want to create a licensed product. You can select multiple discovered products at one time to create multiple licensed products.
Creates a licensed product with the same name as the discovered product.
Creates an entitlement for the licensed product. You specify the entitlement’s description and license model. If you are creating multiple licensed products, the same entitlement (description and license model) is created for each product.
Adds the discovered product to the entitlement.
Identifies any catalog products that might match the licensed product. Lets you choose whether or not to add the catalog products to the licensed product’s entitlement.
When you run the Auto-Reconcile Wizard, you should select discovered products that require the same entitlement license model. As mentioned above, the wizard applies the same entitlement to all licensed products created during the process. If you create a licensed product from a discovered product that does not fit the entitlement license model, you need to manually edit the licensed product’s entitlement and change its license model.
