Metering executable

Introduction

The following is a description of the metering executable available from the right-click menu on an Application group (Metering Executable). The metering executable is used on application groups to create wider metering. A group can have several metering executables, e.g. one for each program in a suite.

The executable name and the version are both required:

• The executable name must end with .exe, e.g. winword.exe.
• The version can contain one wildcard *, and it must be the last character, e.g. 16.*. Enter * to meter all versions.
