Inventory data are saved in xml files, and you might for example want to import the data to a database where it can be further analyzed. You can also specify custom inventory items that you want to include when generating inventories, that is items not included in the list of inventory items on the Inventory tab in Program Options. You might for example want to check what version of a certain program is installed on a number of Host computers.
