SMP - Reports

Published on Saturday, 12 January 2019

Reports

There are a number of SMP SMP Reports Reports pre-installed but you can also create your own.


I thought it might be helpful to document how to create Reports to get the most common information people require, this could be an Asset's Status, it's Location, Department, Inventory data etc. Sometimes the joins aren't obvious or you find a Report with some information but not all and you need to merge the two.

ToDo

  • Inventory (AeX ...)
    • Disk Space
    • Last Check In Date

Please add links to any useful Reports you've found or made.

Please comment below for any Reports you'd like adding to the list.


SSE

I would advise adding the SSE Reports provided by Symantec Symantec, these are useful for any Support Cases you raise.
