| Jim,
I'm in the process of filling out the request for an internal use
version of AssetWORKS V3.0. I understand the need for CA to track
serial numbers and other system info for the server, but what about the
clients? Surely if I want to order 2,000 client licenses they don't
expect me to provide them with this type of information for each
client, right?
Thanks,
John

| No they don't expect you to do that. In fact on pc-based products, you
don't have to give them serial numbers for any of it. All they want to
know is who you are, where you are located, and what products you have.
Just leave the serial number part blank with AssetWORKS.
Jim
