Importing Shopz license entitlements

Shopz is a web based tool that you can use to view zSeries mainframe licenses.

Shopz provides you with a report of your zSeries software licenses for multiple hardware systems. The information contained on the report is the IBM country code, the customer number of who manages the software licenses, the designated machine ID, the type and model of the machine, the processor group of the machine, and the machine's MSUs (millions of service units). The Shopz system uses an Entitlement ID (EID) for software instead of a software Product Identifier (PID) which represents the accessible functions of the license.

You can export license information in an HTML file to use in the License application to manage all of your licenses. The license information that will be in the HTML file includes license names, attributes, and software associated with the licenses.
