  • Patent number: 11263002
    Abstract: A software model specification for a software package can be associated with representation of a software downgrade definition. The software model specification can include a publisher of the software package, an application title of the software package, and the version of the software package. One or more entitlements for the software package can be obtained. Based on the software downgrade definition being associated with the software model specification, the software downgrade definition can be associated with the entitlement(s). Compliance of the installations of the software package with the entitlement(s) can be calculated, where the software downgrade definition can cause each of the entitlement(s) to be applicable to the installations of the version of the software package or one or more earlier versions of the software package.

  • Patent number: 10824305
    Abstract: A computational instance of a remote network management platform may be associated with a managed network and include a database containing: (i) indications of software applications installed on computing devices of the managed network, and (ii) indications of software models that respectively define publisher, product, and licensing information related to the software applications. The computational instance may include a server device configured to (i) generate a representation of a first graphical user interface, (ii) transmit, to a client device associated with the managed network, the representation of the first graphical user interface, (iii) receive, from the client device, a selection, (iv) based on the particular set of the software applications and the particular set of the software models, generate a representation of a second graphical user interface, and (v) transmit, to the client device, the representation of the second graphical user interface.
