Err ok but you do know that the console has more overhead to it than running reports. Plus you now have to give each user the console and therefore anytime you install a CU or R or SP release you will need to update every user.
The summarizing task are not documents anywhere (to my knowledge). Since I always want my users to see the most current data, I never point them to the console and only point them to the reports, plus I'm still a firm believe that you need to keep everyone out of the console (even with RBA enabled) From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of sccmfun Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2014 1:47 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [mssms] Summarization - Collection in console We have some users who don't have access to the reports, rbac'ed them so all they have is console access. Chances are I'm going to leave it the way it is, but for my own knowledge would of liked to know how to kick it off and not wait to summarize.

Report will ALWAYS be 100% update date, the console will be up to 24 hours out of date as the data is summarized, in order to allow the console to be fast. IMO you should NEVER use the console for anything except for creating collection and deploying software. It is just not as efficient as the reports.

I have the same question with clients showing 29.12. as scan date, but there is inventory from today (31th), hence the question, where is that data coming from and what would update it? -R From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Garth Jones Sent: Mittwoch, 31.

If you look at a collection of machines and select the different columns, one of them being hardware inventory, the data is outdated. I know this view is based off summarization, but don't know what the summarization schedule is or how to kick it off manually. I searched for the stored proc, but no luck. I'm also confused as the summarization for the policy requests column seems to update more frequently, but doesn't look like the hardware or other info is updated as quick. I would assume it's one stored proc that updates everything, but then wouldn't all columns update and not just the policy request? Any info on this is appreciated. Happy New Year!
