Citrix Virtual Apps Installer Evidence Report

The Citrix Virtual Apps Installer Evidence report lists details of the following evidence:

  • Installer evidence that has been imported for Citrix streamed applications – that is, the installers associated with App-V applications specified in a Citrix delivery group delivering applications to end users.

  • Installer evidence that has been imported for Citrix Cloud virtual applications.

You may wish to generate this report for one of the following reasons:

  • Quickly identifying unrecognized installer evidence (the Assigned column will display No), so that it can be manually assigned to an application or submitted to Flexera for addition to the Application Recognition Library

  • Identifying all users who have access to applications in Citrix, and which endpoint devices the installation has been recorded against

  • Finding out what licenses are being consumed because of applications accessed through Citrix.

Generating the Report

To generate the report, perform the following steps.

To generate a Citrix Virtual Apps Installer Evidence report:

  1. Go to the Citrix Virtual Apps Installer Evidence report (Reporting > Citrix Reports > Citrix Virtual Apps Installer Evidence).

Reading the Report

The following columns (listed alphabetically) are available in this list. By default, some are available through the column chooser.

PropertyDescription
AssignedDisplays Yes when the evidence is matched to at least one application, and otherwise displays No . This assignment may have been done automatically through the Application Recognition Library rules, or manually by the operator.
Assigned applicationThe application to which the evidence is assigned. This value will differ from the Recognized application if any of the following is correct: The evidence is assigned to an application but is set to Ignored and therefore it is not used for recognition The application to which the evidence is assigned is part of a suite and that suite has been recognized instead of the individual application The application to which the evidence is assigned was removed by precedence rules
Connection nameThe display name of the inventory connection where this evidence was found.
Endpoint deviceThe name of the device on which the user accessed the streamed applications. The device may be an inventory device (one within your enterprise from which you also report hardware and software inventory), or a remote device (a record created automatically when the endpoint is not within your enterprise).
IgnoredDisplays Yes when the file evidence is ignored for application recognition purposes, and No when the evidence may be used for application recognition.
Inventory dateThe most recent date when this evidence was imported. This is the same as the last import date for the associated connection.
License nameThe license name may be: Copied from the first-linked software product Derived from the License Name field of the SKU in the first-linked purchase (or if there is no SKU, from the purchase Description field) Created manually.
NameThe installer evidence name, derived from the native packaging tools on each system (for example, on Windows® devices, the sources include MSI information and Add/Remove Programs data).
PublisherThe publisher name listed in the installer evidence.
Recognized applicationName of the application that is shown as installed in the Application tab of the inventory device properties page for the endpoint device (if the evidence was used for recognition).
SiteThe name of the Citrix Site from which the evidence was imported.
User nameThe name of a user who, as a member of the associated Citrix delivery group, has access to the virtual desktop infrastructure device(s) identified through that group.
