Sending Notifications on Licensed<br />

<strong>Software</strong> Violations<br />

Maintaining up-to-date licensed software records allows you to monitor the number of software licenses<br />

in use in your environment.<br />

Each time a computer submits an inventory report to the <strong>JAMF</strong> <strong>Software</strong> Server (JSS), the licensed<br />

software on the computer is analyzed. If the number of computers that report a licensed software title<br />

is greater than the actual number of licenses purchased by your organization, the JSS sends an email<br />

notification.<br />

Sending email notifications on licensed software violations requires:<br />

• An SMTP server set up in the JSS (For instructions on how to set up an SMTP server, see “Enabling Email<br />

Notifications".)<br />

• The <strong>Software</strong> License Violation option enabled for each account that you want to receive notifications<br />

(For more information, see “Managing JSS User Accounts”.)<br />

Note: A user must have an account in the JSS to receive email notifications.<br />

To send an email notification on a licensed software violation:<br />

1. Log in to the JSS with a web browser.<br />

2. Click the Settings tab.<br />

3. Click the Licensed <strong>Software</strong> Management link.<br />

• To create a new record, click the Create Licensed <strong>Software</strong> button in the toolbar.<br />

To edit an existing record, click the Edit link across from it.<br />

• <br />

4. Select the Send Email Notification on Violation checkbox.<br />

5. Click Save.<br />
