The information available to view for any Client insight is configurable. Table columns can be included or excluded according to your needs, making the console more flexible.

Filtering client-level assets
Any field you choose can filter data, whether you're searching for a specific asset or a list of workstations with an unsupported OS.
Filtering by Insight
By using the Insight filter, you can see a list of Insights so that you can switch between them. The Insight filter dropdown includes all Lifecycle Manager pre-defined and any Personalized Insights.
You will see that the applied filters on the universal console hardware page match the policies associated with the insight you selected.
The asset list in the console is pre-filtered according to the policies associated with the selected insight
Policies are used to create insights or filter the console data (i.e.,. age is greater than, manufacturer is equal to).
The displayed columns align with the data points associated with the policies for the insight the user selected.
When you switch Insight filters, the console is pre-filtered according to the policies associated with the selected insight. The asset list and columns auto adjust based on the selected filter.
Filtering forecasted assets
A Forecast filter enables you to see a list of assets that will be compliant within a specified time frame that ranges from 30 to 120 days. You can add forecasted assets to existing Initiatives.
Now - viewing assets that comply with an insight's rule.
30 days - includes assets that will comply with an Insight's rule within 30-days.
60 days - includes assets that will comply an Insight's rule within 60-days
90 days - includes assets that will comply with an Insight's rule within 90-days
120 days - includes assets that will comply with an Insight's rule within 120-days.
Once you’ve identified issues in your client’s infrastructure, you can convert automated client insights into client-ready recommendations which your clients can approve with one click.
Manually adding assets to Initiatives from the Hardware console
The Hardware console allows you to add assets manually to Initiatives.
Assuming you have been reviewing the “slow workstations” insight, which identifies workstations over 5 years old, you may plan different actions for distinct assets. For example, you may designate some assets identified as slow for warranty renewal instead of replacement.
Additionally, if you have a workstation replacement Initiative scheduled for next quarter, some of these identified workstations may already exist in that Initiative, but not all of them.
From the detailed Insight asset console, select the Is not in Initiative data point filter
From the detailed Client Hardware console, select the desired assets to be added to an Initiative.
Click the + Add to Initiative button.
From the Take action on this asset dialog, under the Add to heading, click + Existing Initiative and select from the list of existing Initiatives.
Once the desired Initiative is selected, click Finish.
Once you add the selected assets to an Initiative, the filtered list adjusts automatically. You can redirect any remaining assets that have yet to be added to an Initiative to a separate Initiative for warranty renewals.
