Software calculations use license calculation types to determine how software licenses are counted in your organization.

You can use the default license types provided by the legacy Software Asset Management (com.snc.software_asset_management) plugin or create new ones. To view the default types, navigate to Software Asset > Reconciliation > License Calculations and select a type. All fields in the default records are read-only.
