Application Discovery by GPO name rather than "Product Name" According to Altiris

HI,

Is it possible to report on software by it's GPO name? where is the Altiris variable location for this? for example in our domain we assign software by adding the "group" to the machine.

Software group would be say  "Pc software - Adobe 8.0 Full"  and i want to report on all PC's with "pc software - Adobe 8.0 full" and have the current primary user for that machine + machine name.

(I noticed this option needs the month selected other wise you get primary user for every month since reporting started creating duplicates)

Anyone have a script like this or advise me on the group variable i use for this? I'm sure i can use a script i got from here that does the same but uses [Product Name] but alas some of our packages don't have the same name as the "product name" Altiris picks up some install from the same MSI but use a differnt MST to change the package types etc....

Thanks!
