Local Printers

[keys_it]

Wishlist:

1) We would like to see local USB printers added as their own asset with configuration information if possible
2) We would like to see the AD Description field as a searchable field in the main Lansweeper search bar up top. We identify computers in AD Description box and would like to see that become searchable. It will make identifying stationary computers (conference room computer for example) without have to add them as a custom field in Lansweeper

I am currently using this program to sync the AD Description to the local PC. I deployed it with GPO and it works great for us. It helps the built in lansweeper reports work without having to change them. SyncDesc hxxp://syncdesc.codeplex.com

1) We've added this to the wish list.
2) This will most likely not be implemented to be honest. We get many requests to add items to the search bar. We can't add all requested fields, as this would negatively impact search bar performance. Note that you can "search" any field by running a report and filtering the report within the report results. A sample report for AD descriptions can be seen below.

SELECT tsysAssetTypes.AssetTypeIcon10 AS icon, tblAssets.AssetID, tblAssets.AssetName, tblAssets.Domain, tblAssets.IPAddress, tblAssets.Firstseen, tblAssets.Lastseen,
tblADComputers.Description
FROM tblAssets INNER JOIN
tblAssetCustom ON tblAssets.AssetID = tblAssetCustom.AssetID INNER JOIN
tsysAssetTypes ON tblAssets.Assettype = tsysAssetTypes.AssetType LEFT JOIN
tblADComputers ON tblAssets.AssetID = tblADComputers.AssetID
WHERE (tblAssetCustom.State = 1)
ORDER BY tblAssets.Domain, tblAssets.AssetName
