ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that analyzes relationships between authorization and installation information for a software product. During operation, the system receives a set of authorization information that is associated with a transaction for a software product from a point of sale system at a retail location. The system also receives installation information for the software product from a computer system. The system determines whether the authorization information and the installation information are associated by checking whether the two sets of information share a common set of identifying information. If so, the system analyzes the associated authorization information and installation information to determine a relationship between the transaction and the associated installation of the software product.
