Hi Yesu,
Navigate to :
AR System Administration console > General > Add or Remove License
use the 'Generate License Usage Report' button to generate the report.

Hi,
the report will give you all the licence details of all the applications in CSV file.
If you want to see this in some of the dash board or Use this in AR forms the you have to Customize and just a matter of 1 AL and one Filter
Thanks,
Ramanee

There's also the Current License Usage & Historical License Usage display forms that holds data that you can use for flashboards.
This is documented in the manuals under 'Displaying License Usage' and you need to enable License Tracking on Server Information form -> Configuration tab

Has anybody (BMC or customer) created a UI to present this info in a nice manner? Doesn't seem like rocket science I am sure somebody has done it. It seems like a pretty simple thing to build and share that many of the Community members would find value in. Yes, I could be the one to build it also I won't exclude myself from building this but honestly I have been meaning to mess with it for a while now (pretty much since it was introduced) and just haven't found the time.

7. Re: How to check the application level license usage for ITSM
Are there any drawbacks or issues that might occur from enabling License Tracking if it has been disabled for a long time?
Once enabled, what abilities does it provide that I didn't have before? I am looking for ways to track license usage in better detail than the "Generate License Usage Report" provides and maybe also represent it with a few good graphics.
Thoughts/ideas?
Thanks,
Josh

There's no negatives that I'm aware of, it will just create records in the 2 mentioned forms from that point onward (until License Tracking is disabled of course).
The records that appear in the Current Licence Usage form will move to the Historical License Usage form when that user's session has ended. More details on it can be found here:
