    Posted Jul 05, 2016 05:17 PM

    Below is the query present inside Computers with Software installed report in our console. For a certain software, the installed count in our environment is 14000 but while selecting the same software by running this report in console returns only 500.Could someone help me in modifying the report so that it can return proper results.

    Declare @ProductUsage Table(
        ResourceGuid varChar(36)
        ,Name varChar(36)
        ,[OS Name] varChar(36)
                       ,UsedCount int
        ,DeliveryStatus varChar(36)
        ,SoftwareComponentGuid varChar(36)
        ,[Software Name] nvarchar(128)
        ,LastStart DateTime
        ,InstallDate DateTime
        )

    INSERT @ProductUsage
    EXECUTE spAC_GetComputersBySoftwareProduct @ComputerName=N'%%'
    , @SelectTop=20
    , @Trustee=N'{2E1F478A-4986-4223-9D1E-B5920A63AB41},{402DC8EC-CC6C-4D4B-B389-F12AE18CB02F},{582029E2-FC5B-4717-8808-B80D6EF0FD67},{9791A53A-6F81-4701-B878-E68C4C540057},{A8508E1D-C6A5-4F9B-A1F4-3D401C44564D},{AE41E526-1963-4C40-A456-A67E845F4D19},{B760E9A9-E4DB-404C-A93F-AEA51754AA4F}'
    , @SoftwareComponentGuids='%DesiredComponentGuid%'
    Select 
        PU.Name
        ,PU.[OS Name]
        ,PU.[Software Name]
        ,PU.UsedCount
        ,PU.LastStart
        ,SwINV.Usage
        ,SWInv.[Usage Previous Month]
        ,PU.InstallDate
    from @ProductUsage PU
    JOIN  (    Select Inv._ComputerResourceGuid
                    ,inv.Usage
                    ,inv.[Usage Previous Month]
                    ,itm.Name
                    from
                    dbo.Inv_SoftwareProduct_InstallationInfo INV
                    JOIN dbo.vItem itm ON itm.Guid=inv._ResourceGuid
                    where itm.Guid = '%DesiredComponentGuid%' and itm.ClassGuid = 'AA34B7C1-1C65-4085-A9D1-E7F83D633B2F'    
                    Group By Inv._ComputerResourceGuid ,inv.Usage, inv.[Usage Previous Month],itm.Name) as SwINV ON PU.ResourceGuid = SWINv._ComputerResourceGuid

    I think your problem is that the report is using the SQL that produces the list of computers shown in the Activity Center (Enhanced Console Views). From memory this stored procedure has a built in limit of 500 PCs to stop the console freezing every time a piece of software with lots of installations is selected. I've looked at unpicking this Stored Procedure before but its not trivial as it can combine installs from more than one Software Release contained in a Software Product.

    Thanks for your response. Would you by any chance let me know how to tweak this report and produce proper results?
