Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
As a Satellite 6 user, I want to manage my Red Hat subscriptions from the Satellite instead of from the customer portal.
I should have both options (the current way), or without needed to use the customer portal.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. log into the customer portal
2. create a manifest
3. add subscriptions
4. go to the satellite webui
5. upload the satellite manifest
In addition if you need more subscriptions you now must go back to the customer portal and add subscriptions. Then back to the satellite webui to refresh (or use hammer on the command line for refresh).
Expected results: We need a seamless way to manage subscriptions within Satellite, so you do not have to go back and forth from the customer portal.
Closed out older one from 2015 since it's more sparse with no case/kbases attached: Bug 1269233 - [RFE] ability to add or remove subscriptions to/from manifest from within Satellite 6 web UI
There's also another related Bug 1216228 [RFE] Automate the process of generating manifests in Satellite 6
In Satellite 6.4, the user will continue to create their manifest using the customer portal and import/upload in to Satellite. After that, they may choose to modify the content of their manifest (e.g. add, remove or modify) from within the Satellite UI.

Does it means there will be no Manifest "Refresh" required after the initial Manifest Import?
If so, will there be a kind of Synchronization between what we see in Satellite vs the Portal?
Thanks!
Manifest refresh will only be necessary if users change their subscriptions from access.redhat.com. An automatic manifest refresh is triggered when users modify subscription allocations from within Satellite.
Verified in Satellite 6.4 snap 22.
Satellite has introduced this feature in 6.4. Users can now edit entitlement count, as well as add new subscriptions to their satellite, when linked to the portal.
Additionally, users can also delete subscriptions they no longer want. See documentation for further details.
