Very (for the most part) green SCCM Admin.
My manager has asked me to retrieve a software inventory of our entire network (military installation) for an upcoming inspection.
Ive been searching through forums and Technet for a while now trying to find a method to achieve this but all the vast majority of posts either suggest a 3rd party piece of software (cant use, has to have a certificate of networthiness to be used) or has
a report that will return an ungodly amount of data. The long and short of what I need is a report that will
1. Pull all software that machines report back as installed
2. 1 instance of the software is enough so avoiding duplicates is pretty much key, I dont need to have all the client PCs listed, but the number of clients that instance of software is installed on would be helpful
3. Product name, version and manufacturer would be nice to start off with.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
