Todo for OCS Inventory

If you want some new functionnality, tell me (if you can send me C++ code, that's better !).

 

Migrate from DAO and Access only database to ODBC or XML-RPC support. As is, you will be able to use any database server. This is planed for the next release. As it require a huge code rewrite, please be patient. We don't plan to have beta before the end of the year 2003.
Replace WinIO support to retreive BIOS informations by WMI. Windows Management Instrumentation is included in all recent Microsoft OS (Windows Me/2000/XP) and available as an addon for Windows 98 and NT4. It works better than WinIO and have much more features.
Some others suggestions received:
  • A search per user.
  • The ability to run reports based on diffrent criteria such as the number of PC's with Outlook installed or a list of PC's with only 64mb of memory installed.
  • Together with such an improved administration a user based license tracking could be useful
  • A simple sound adapter recognition could be helpful
  • When you change the computer name and rescan this system it puts a duped record of the same system with a different name in the database.
    One way to clear the old system is find it and delete it. Is there anyway that the program can update the old info or just change the computer name?
  • etc...
