Feature usage status

To see how much of each licensed feature is in use, open the Feature usage status report. Use it to track utilization trends and make licensing decisions.

In the product this report is the Feature Usage Status sheet of the Active Analytics dashboard.

The following screenshot shows the table of license usage per feature:

The Feature usage status table shows license usage percentages, borrowed counts, and feature-level licensing details.

Visualizations

The report has the following visualization:

• Feature Usage Status Table: Use this table to see how much of each licensed feature is in use. It lists the feature, the product and vendor behind it, the license server, version and additional key, the size of the pool, how much of it is in use, and the resulting usage percentage. Rows are ordered by usage percentage, so the features closest to saturation come first, and the usage column is color-scaled from amber to red. Values displayed:
  • Feature Name: Name of the software feature.
  • Product Name: Product to which the feature belongs.
  • Vendor: Vendor supplying the license.
  • Server Name: License server name.
  • Version: Feature version.
  • Additional Key: Any extra licensing or configuration key associated with the feature.
  • Total: Total number of licenses available for the feature. Two adjacent columns are both headed Total. The first is the size of the pool, and the second is how many of those licenses are in use.
  • Usage %: Percentage of used licenses relative to the total available quantity.

Fields the license manager has not reported read Not Available.

This sheet has no date filter. It reports the current state of each feature pool. To narrow the report, use these filters:

• Server Name: Select any server name.
• Vendor: Select any vendor.
• License Type: Select any license type.
• Additional Key: Select any additional key.
• Feature Name: Select any feature name.
• Software Name: Select a cataloged product from the SAM Catalog. The catalog normalizes publisher and product names, so filtering here groups license records that carry inconsistent raw license strings.
• User Name: Select any username.
• Child Username: OpenLM Platform combines usage under a parent user account, so User Name shows the combined total for that person. Select a child username here to drill down into a single account merged under the parent. See User aliases for how OpenLM Platform builds the mapping.
• Group Name: Select any group name.
• Project Name: Select any project name.
• Product Name: Select any product name.
• Version: Select any version.

Interpreting this report

Use these points to read the report:

• Usage % is pool saturation at this moment. Rows at or near 100% have no spare capacity: the next request for that feature is a likely denial. The report sorts by Usage %, so the top of the table is your live watch list. Cross-check those features in Denials.
• This is a snapshot, not a history. The sheet deliberately has no date filter. A feature can sit at 0% here and still saturate every morning at 9 AM. The hourly pattern lives in License usage.
• The two Total columns read: pool size, then seats in use. A 15/15 row and a 5/4 row both read as "high usage" by percentage, but they tell different procurement stories. The small pool might only need one more seat.
• Version 26 exposed the same measure as the Feature usage status widget in EasyAdmin. This sheet is its OpenLM Platform successor.
