Installed applications within the last 24 hours.

Is it possible to create a report that would provide me with non-configmgr application installations that took place within a 24 hour period?

 

I changed the hardware scanning to run every 24 hours and software to 14 days so I am able to view daily changes (Installed Applications, not software) per machine using the resource monitor.

Is there a way to pull this data out of the table? Could there be a workaround or another way to get it?

This information is not possible to collect. There is no guarantee way to know if software was installed by CM12 or manually.

Thank you for answering.

I don't really care "how" the software was installed. If I go into the resource viewer of a specific client I am able to see changes on a day to day basis. I'm curious if I can "scrape" the info from one or more of the sql report tables and combine it into one report.

 

Again, thank you for the help.

Yes you can write a custom report to do that but keep in mind that it will not be 100% valid due to timing and laptops being off the network. Look at eh build-in report and use the timestamp column to filter in those rows from the last 24 hours.

OK, that makes a lot of sense. A lot depends on the clients reporting in, the validity of the info, and how long it takes the report server to make the change.

 

I'll look into the canned report and try to work with that.Thank you again.
