One thing we do here is a dos driven program we made “very simple” and every so often if/when needed we just have bigfix run this app…it basically just gives a spot for the user to answer a couple questions. For our use it was branch number, city, state, serial number of the unit. Your case sounds very similar you could use Cubicle, Dept, Floor, etc…
We took the information from this and created a txt doc on C:\ and those properties were obtained via bigfix giving us a very good view of where things were. below is the example we used: Relevance
createfile until myend
@echo off
setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set /p var=Enter your field1:
set /p var1=Enter your field2:
set /p var2=Enter your field3:
echo !var! > c:\Serial.txt
echo !var1! >> c:\Serial.txt
echo !var2! >> c:\serial.txt
myend
delete “c:\pcinfo.bat”
copy __createfile “c:\pcinfo.bat”
wait “{pathname of file “cmd.exe” of system folder}” /C “c:\pcinfo.bat”
from this you can create something you either have it pop up on boot…or have it come up once a month or whatever. the drawback to this is they can choose not to answer, answer correctly, or just close it. if this doesnt work for you maybe it will spark some other person to have a moment of clarity and come up with something better we can all use.
you will have to have bigfix look at this file and get the values for each field, but that should be the easy part.
