Overview Products tab
Use the Overview Products tab in the Oracle section of SAM Core to gain visibility of the license compliance for your Oracle products and see an overview of your Oracle licenses and associated costs.
Description
You can choose between two different views on the Overview Products tab:
On the Compliance summary view, you can see the compliance for your entire Oracle estate, as well as broken down by product type or product.
On the Order summary view, you can see the number of purchased Oracle licenses per product, and your Oracle licenses costs.
Select the view you want to see from the Select view list.
On each view the information is presented in three sections:
Key figures give a quick status overview in numbers.
Charts visualize certain aspects of the license compliance or cost status.
Insights highlight areas of potential spend-optimization opportunities, for example unassigned licenses that may represent unnecessary spend. For each area, the potential optimization is shown, together with a link to a report with more detailed information.
See the Characteristics section below for descriptions on all key figures and charts.
