Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Troubleshooting:
I cannot see the target VA while transferring the device. This can happen on Two scenarios: A) When User do not have access to the VA where he is transferring the device. B) When VA is not fully created. So, the User needs to make sure the VA is created properly and has access to avoid this issue.
When I move the device my license also moves along with the device. If there is a device for which licenses are reserved and in use, moving the device the license will move along with device
I have bulk device movement request. (This flow is applicable only for Reserved Devices). Click on the Inventory Tab in Smart software manager -> Click on the Product Instance Tab -> Select/click on check box for requested licenses/devices (Reserved) -> Click on the Action Button ->Select Your Target VA -> Click on Transfer.
