Mapping a Product to a Part Number

A product can be mapped to one or more part numbers. Part numbers are optional and are selected from a group of unassigned part numbers that have been imported into FlexNet Operations.

A part number can also be mapped to a particular license model linked with a product. When a part number is mapped to a license model, only that license model can be used in the entitlement.

To map a product to a part number

1. Select a product.
