SCCM Updates: Automated Reports for Latest Deployment Operations
In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of modifying the PowerShell script to generate SCCM deployment reports within a specific time frame and have them sent via email.
To adjust the date range, you'll need to focus on the script's date filtering logic. Typically, this can be found in lines that define or filter deployments by date, often using or a SQL query with a clause on deployment timestamp fields.
Here are the key steps to follow:
- Locate date filtering logic: Search for the lines that filter deployments by date in the script.
- Add or modify date parameters: If the script doesn't already accept parameters like and , add them to the script header so you can specify the range when running the script.
- Adjust the filter condition: Modify the filter condition to compare the deployment date against the start and end dates of your desired range, for example:
- Use parameters and date parsing: At the top of the script, define the parameters:
- Test your changes: Run the script with your custom dates:
- Ensure the email section uses the filtered results: Make sure the report only includes deployments created within your specified date range.
Please note that this guide provides a general approach to modifying date filters in PowerShell scripts, and the exact script isn't provided in the search results. However, the process should apply similarly to SCCM reports or deployment queries.
If the script uses a SQL query to fetch deployments from SCCM's database, you'll need to modify the query's clause to filter on the deployment time, for example:
In summary, to customize the date range for new SCCM deployments in the script, modify or add parameters for start/end dates and adjust the filtering logic (PowerShell or SQL) accordingly to restrict deployments included in the email report to your chosen timeframe.
