Can I create a report in Kace Systems Management that shows me the computers that have multiple users associated with it?
I need a report that will show me which computers in my inventory have multiple users associated with them.

What do you mean by "associated with"? - chucksteel 2 months ago

Some of my computers are not dedicated to just one user, some are shared computers where multiple people in a department can log on to that computer. So the computer has more then one user profile on it. Need to create a report that shows which computers have multiple user profiles on the computer. Does that make sense? - MelaMaui 2 months ago

Try this custom inventory rule, it displays you the user folders on a device which should show you who was logged in to the device.
ShellCommandTextReturn(powershell -Command "Get-ChildItem -Exclude Default,Public,'All Users','Default User' -Path C:\Users\ -Directory -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Select-Object FullName")
Otherwise it would be a bit more complicated since you would need to look through the event log or look through the history of the SMA who got detected as logged in user.

Where exactly do I enter that rule in Kace Systems Management? Do I enter that in the SQL field when I create the report? I'm actually not looking for the Default User, I'm looking for all the users in that user folder. - MelaMaui 2 months ago

Please follow the KB that Nico just sent to create the custom inventory rule. The command collects you all user folders, the named folders at the beginning are exclusions so that you do not see default user, all users etc. since it is not valuable information.
In addition to the KB article, if you are on version 14 or later of the SMA, you need to go to "Inventory/Custom Inventory" in order to create the rule. - sven.hain 2 months ago

Relation ship i.e. ownership of a device asset is a one to one relationship.
That's the relationship where you see the associated devices in the user record.
However you could also get in Inventory a different User and login user, so in short three associations.
To build that report you should be able to do it via the wizard
