If the stocktaking start date of the object device has been set, the devices inventory verification period from the commencement date to the present time shall be confirmed. And it will turn into Stocktaking Completed automatically. For example, when Systemwalker Desktop Patrol collects inventory information for inventory verification, the setup of the stocktaking object devices will turn into Stocktaking Completed.
After the stocktaking start date is set, the system administrator can confirm stocktaking status of the PC according to the inventory information collected in Systemwalker Desktop Patrol, or confirm stocktaking status through automatic detection on device information for the purpose of reducing inventory verification confirmation operation and carrying out management correctly.
In addition, when the inventory information collected in Systemwalker Desktop Patrol is used as the basis to judge the inventory verification status as "inventory verification completed", it is required to set the Method to determine stocktaking status.
Because the stocktaking objects are remote devices, the system administrator can set the object devices as Stocktaking Completed in the stocktaking status display window when it is impossible to carry out stocktaking according to the inventory information collected in Systemwalker Desktop Patrol. On the contrary, the devices set as Stocktaking Completed shall be restored to Stocktaking Uncompleted.
The system administrator can change the setups (Stocktaking Completed/Stocktaking Uncompleted) to support various applications.

If the IP address of the device changes due to removal, the user can correct the Setup Place during stocktaking, and reflect the Setup Place to the assets device account simply and correctly.
