<font face="Lucida Grande" size="3">One thing we do for stolen equipment is add the word _STOLEN at the end of the computer name in the JSS database. Then we create a smart group based on the name. That is how we track it, you could maybe do something similar.</font><br><br><br>___________________________<BR>Thomas Larkin<BR>TIS Department<BR>KCKPS USD500<BR><a href="mailto:tlarki@kckps.org">tlarki@kckps.org</a><BR>blackberry: 913-449-7589<BR>office: 913-627-0351<BR><BR><BR><BR><br><br>>>> Roger Corbin <rcorbin@mac.com> 05/08/09 10:03 AM >>><br>More and more Casper is also becoming a tool to track all of our <br>computer assets.  Eventually a computer gets too old for us to use or <br>is deemed not repairable.  In our old inventory system (Which we are <br>still running simultaneously as well.) we can change the <br>classification of these machines to "decommissioned".   For <br>accounting, historical and work order purposes we track those machines <br>for a time even after they are sent off to recycling. It would be <br>great if Casper had some sort of classification for this so that you <br>could leave it in inventory but not take up a license (managed or <br>unmanaged.) I'm not sure how practical this would be, but it would be <br>handy for us. These decommissioned assets would not need much <br>information on them.  Just asset number, make and model and serial <br>number. Maybe some date information. Just bare bones basics. I'm not <br>sure if this is something anyone else would use or not but it would be <br>very handy for us.<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Casper mailing list<br>Casper@list.jamfsoftware.com<br><a href="http://list.jamfsoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/casper">http://list.jamfsoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/casper</a><br>
