Thank you Peter. Do you know if there is a source of data that we can utilize in order to manually alter most used applications?

In fact the new BMC product catalog import data mechanism allos the import to be paused after the data is loaded in staging forms for the Tier 1-3 values to be changed. ADDM hardcodes the Tier 1 to 'Software' and Tier 2 to 'Application'. Tier 3 is set according to the software found (eg 'Application Deployment Software' for Java, .net, etc and 'Application Server Software Platforms' for web servers such as tomcat.
