Create software profiles to manage how and when software is distributed or updated on Classic devices. Once a software profile has been created, edit the name, status, and selection criteria. Add software to the profile so that the software is distributed to devices on a controlled basis. For information on adding and configuring software packages, see Managing Software Packages.
Selection criteria determine which devices receive the software profile. Only devices that meet the selection criteria for the software profile will receive the software associated with the profile. For information about creating selection criteria, see Building Selection Criteria.
This allows you to give a user permission for one specific profile, rather than all profiles of a specific type. Users that already have permission for the profile will not appear in the list of available users. For information about creating users and assigning permissions, see Managing User Accounts.
The location selected when you create the profile will be the profile's home location.

| 1 | From the Profiles tab, click New Profile. |
| 2 | The New Profile dialog box appears. Click Software. |
| 3 | The New Profile Details page appears. Type a name for the profile in the Name text box. |

| 4 | If desired, enable the profile. |
| 5 | Click Launch wizard to use the Selection Criteria Builder to determine which devices the software profile will be applied to. For details about creating and using selection criteria, see Using Selection Criteria. |
