It is necessary to trace process of receipt of software products in the organisation from suppliers, to provide reflexion in the accounting and tax account of expenses for acquisition of objects of intellectual property.
3. All documentation, concerning the got software products (the licence, registration cards and certificates, invoices etc.) should be concentrated in one place. So you will lose nothing and can operatively show all necessary documents to the checking.
4. Sometimes in shops it is possible to see OEM versions of various programs. Yes, it is legal copies and their sale it is quite lawful. But they are intended only for the firms which are engaged in assemblage of computers! OEM is the limited variant of the licence, OEM-VERSIONS of programs can be established on the computer only in the course of its assemblage by firm which is engaged in it. In case of check you should prove documentary that all occurred so. Therefore do not buy disks with a mark “OEM” in the shops, programs available on them cannot be established on earlier got computers. You only will spend large enough sum of money, and the result will be same as though you have established something “piracy”. Besides the OEM-VERSION can reinstall only five times.
