When using the legacy Software Asset Management (com.snc.software_asset_management)
plugin to determine where your software is installed, you must keep the following points in
mind.  
* The software instance no longer contains discovered information. The information previously went to the Software Instance \[cmdb_software_instance\] table, but now goes to the Software Installation \[cmdb_sam_sw_install\] table. Because the table has changed, you must change your transform maps to point to the new table.
* Models identified by a discovery tool are linked to software models.
* Use grouping to obtain more specific information from a software counter.
* Software installations link a computer with a software model (via a discovery model).
{#c_DeterminWhereSWInstalled__ul_rvq_4qy_np}  
A discovery tool places the data it obtains into the Software Installation \[cmdb_sam_sw_install\] table. All of the information can be seen in the Software Installations list and the individual Software Installation forms. When a record is created, the system analyzes the Discovery Model table and identifies five key points.
