Configuring Lansweeper for iPhone Installations and Customizing Report Exclusions

As an IT administrator, it's essential to ensure that your Lansweeper setup is tailored to meet the specific needs of your organization. In particular, configuring Lansweeper to exclude non-active systems or devices can be a crucial step in streamlining your reporting process.

In this article, we'll explore how to set up Lansweeper for iPhone installations and customize report exclusions using the existing 'state' functionality.

Before diving into the details, it's essential to define what constitutes an active system. In our organization, we consider a system as inactive if it has been out of the office for more than 180 days. This threshold can be adjusted based on your specific requirements.

However, there may be instances where you want to include systems that are not actively connected to your network but still need to be reported. For example, devices in the shop for repair or off-site assets would typically fall into this category. In Lansweeper, you can build custom reports that exclude non-active states and include these specific devices.

To achieve this, you can create a report that filters out systems with a state other than 'active.' This will ensure that your reports only include devices that are currently connected to the network or meet specific criteria defined by your organization.

But what about devices that aren't seen by your network for extended periods? These assets may not be actively connected, but they still require reporting. To address this issue, Lansweeper's 'state' functionality can be leveraged to tag these devices and prevent them from being excluded in reports.

In summary, configuring Lansweeper for iPhone installations and customizing report exclusions requires a thoughtful approach that balances the need for accuracy with the requirement to include specific devices in your reporting. By using the existing 'state' functionality and creating custom reports that exclude non-active states, you can ensure that your organization's reporting process is efficient and effective.

For instance, if you're conducting an OS audit, you may want to include systems in the shop for repair or off-site assets. In this case, creating a report that excludes non-active states would allow you to capture these devices and provide a comprehensive view of your organization's IT infrastructure.

In conclusion, Lansweeper provides a flexible reporting platform that can be customized to meet the unique needs of your organization. By leveraging the 'state' functionality and creating custom reports, you can ensure that your reporting process is accurate, efficient, and effective.
