Does anyone know anything about the new Inventory Advisor Tool?
http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=10243574
I downloaded and installed it, but it is apparently a trial. According to the documentation, you get the unlock code from an Autodesk rep., but it makes no mention of where to request the code and I cannot find anything in the software.
"Upon launching the application for the first time, you will be prompted to input a user name and unlock code. An Autodesk representative will provide this information to you"

Is this a "free" tool (included in our subscription) that we need to obtain a code for via our reseller?

Hi every body,
I tested Autodesk Inventory Advisor (AIA_3.95.1778.zip) to scan my computer that contains Autodesk 2012 and 2013 products.
I get a report from AIA, it only contains Autodesk 2012 product, no trace about Autodesk 2013 products.
Is AIA able to identify the Autodesk 2013 products ? exist some patch to solve this trouble ?
Thanks for your anwsers
JR
thats a limitation right now
hopefully autodesk will update it

Hi, I m using Autodesk Inventory Advisor tool to get the numbers of license already used on my LAN, and that's work great, but I want to get the installation type too, and this field only shows some numbers, 0,1,2,3, I'm looking for some information about this, what does it means each number? Please if someone knows something about it, reply me, or maybe some post or manual to get more info about the tool.
Thanks and Regards
Did you find any answers about the installation type that the Autodesk inventory Advisor find.
What do the 0, 1, 2, and 3 stand for?
I received some additional information
3 refers to a network license
1 and 2 refer to standalone licenses
0 refers to a newer license where the type is stored in another file. Autodesk’s tools can determine what this is.
when you go into the Autodesk Inventory Advisor to Reports and you run the "by software" report and not the serial number you will find the 2013 installations. But no serialnumbers are found in this reports
Hi
,
Thanks for your anwser.
So AIA is not fully exploited.
During the inventory, you need the serial number, the name and version of the product and the type of installation....
When Autodesk will release a workable version?
Regards

The problem with the tool is that autodesk provides this as just a tool to help you getting inventories from your assets.
It ofcourse says nothing about usage of your software, I have not found anything about an update of the software so that R 2013 will be found.
I sent a request to ClearApps LLC the owner of the inventory tool. When I recieve there answer I will let you know
Hi,
AIA 4 beta 'll coming soon.
http://blog.clearapps.com/releases/network-inventory-advisor-4-beta/
I hope it solves all problems
- Detection Autodesk 2013 products
- Type of installation ...
JR
I tested NIA 4 beta it detects Autodesk 2013 products but can not find serial number and installation.type.
JR
Other than Inventory advisor 4 or Asset locator who does not work with Autodesk 2013 products, do you know another tool to make an correct inventory of Autodesk products?
JR
Hi baker975,
Thanks for your answer.
I've tested Spiceworks to scan Autodesk Software.
Spicework is not a tool to make an inventory for Autodesk products .
Results in reporting are not really usable.
