Method: getExactAvailableCount

Description

The getExactAvailableCount operation provides the exact, current available count for a specified line item. This operation allows users to obtain a potentially more precise count than those available in the administrative console UI or via other web service operations.

The FlexNet Operations UI and other web service operations do not evaluate the count of available copies when an upgrade is created. Therefore it is possible to create an upgrade count that exceeds the number of available copies; however, the count is evaluated at fulfillment time. On fulfillment, upgrades that exceed the available count are rejected. To avoid errors at fulfillment time, users may use getExactAvailableCount, which returns exact number of copies available for an upgrade fulfillment, for example, without having to return any previous fulfillments.
