What we need is to go back to the SHR:Consolidation form.  It did everything 
you needed to do and more!  If you needed a field on the table, you add it to 
the SHR form, you add it to the one active link and boom you have it on your 
table, not like now where you have to add it to 100 places (Insert sarcasm 
here)  to see it on the table.  Maybe that is the solution.  Create your own 
home page with your own form and table.

The part that is most annoying and aggravating is that you consume a license 
for an application you are not even going to access just because someone else 
on your team has a ticket in the group queue and it shows up at the top of your 
table on the console.

This is becoming a nightmare.  I do not know how we would be defending our side 
of this "battle" without RRR.se!  Misi and Magnus have been amazing and their 
tool has made it so much easier to determine what we are really using and how 
to allocate the licenses properly and ultimately what to purchase when the time 
comes.

Hi Shawn,

It has not changed for the Overview Console (yet). That is what we are looking 
to address in this thread.

One point of clarification, there is not a different Overview Console for the 
Customizable Home Page. The CHP uses inline forms to display the actual 
Overview Console.

Either way were have been told by BMC staff that a license is only used when 
saving (create/modify). Like Tony I am going to have to explain that is not 
completely accurate (I've started but since mgmt is still in shock from having 
to think about paying for CM licensing  to cover ~300 people because it was 
"free" when CM was homegrown, I get that shutup look each time I mention this 
issue).
