You use the Operating System Conversion application to
establish standard naming conventions for computer operating systems.
Each conversion record specifies a target name and a variant name.
The variant name converts to the target name when operating system
data is shown. These actions reduce the number of names that are displayed.
Use the Operating System Conversion application to perform the
following actions:
- Create operating system records.
- Delete operating system records.
- Modify the target name in operating system conversion records.
- Add variant names to a conversion record.
- Delete variant names from a conversion record.
- Move variant names from one conversion record to another conversion
record.
- Review conversion records created when newly imported data do
not match any existing variant names.
- View conversion records.
- View operating system conversion information in reports.
