Inventory of ProductID and ProductName

Our Microsoft license requires that we keep the ProductID number (unique number generated upon installation) and ProductName and hostname for license compliance centrally for audit. The Resource Manager shows these under Licensed Software on the initial screen for Office products, but not for the OS. Is there a report that would gather this data from the registry of managed PCs? We have tried a few things, but have had no luck. I'm pretty lost here. Any help would be appreciated!

Mike,

create a custom inventory looking at the reg key (EXAMPLE USING MS Office 2002 - you may need to look at 11.0 or 12.0 in place of 10.0! You may also need to change the guid accordingly too...) :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Registration\{90120409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0050048383C9}\ProductID



thanks
