The only doubt that could remain is how you translate "partida".

Your text says they are Server management and data, System security, etc. These are sections/areas or "items" of the software, and not entries in this case, which is the accountancy term.

management software modules/packages/components


Explanation:
Many software programs have modules or packages that work independently or in concert with each other.

I agree with neilmac that it could be items, but only if the context is a list of software components (another choice) that are items that must be purchased, for example.

Without more context, it is difficult to know the best term to use, although from your description I would tend to use one of the above.

Clarification of explanation:
"se realizan" can be "are executed" (software is usually executed or run, as in components or modules), or "are installed" (as in software packages, or a list of items).

Examples:

1) For proper functioning of the system, the following management software items are installed:

2) For proper functioning of the system, the following management software modules are executed:

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  neilmac: I disagree with "only if the context is a list of software components". These are items on a list. It could refer to modules, but they are usually called "módulos", at least in the software I work on.

  -> I agree neilmac, what I meant was that it is not clear from the description given what the proper choice of words can be. I will add a note with additional explanations. Thank you for your comment.
