Maintenance entitlements are linked to perpetual entitlements but the number of rights are still sameSummaryThe following documentation suggests that a new entitlement is created when a maintenance entitlement is linked to a perpetual entitlement, but when rights allocated to maintenance entitlement are the same as the perpetual one, no entitlement is created. Create maintenance entitlements in Software Asset Management classic A. This is working as expected. when the rights allocated for the maintenance entitlement are the same as the perpetual one no new entitlement is created. For an example, please look at the examples I've included below. Scenario 1 :1. "A" is a perpetual entitlement with "25" rights. (Active maintenance is false)2. "B" is a maintenance Entitlement with "19" rights.3. When A is added under related entitlements with rights as 19, a new entitlement is created with 19 rights where the active maintenance is true.Scenario 2 :1. "A" is a perpetual entitlement with "25" rights. (Active maintenance is false)2. "B" is a maintenance Entitlement with "25" rights.3. When A is added under related entitlements with rights as 25. A new entitlement is not created. Instead, the existing entitlement "A" is marked as Active maintenance true.In the above scenario, the difference equals (25 -25) "0", so creating another entitlement doesn't make sense. So we mark the existing perpetual one as true.
