[FEATURE] - Search devices by age

[somzoli]

Hi,

It would be nice if we can search computers by actual date and computers age. I mean if can we add a variable as the current date (e.g compare by date) and compare it by property (like computer inventory number, that contain an year number). It may can be place in dynamic groups or saved searches.

That would be appreciable ideal?

Thank you, Z

Hi @somzoli

Your issue seems a bit specific. Why don't you create a dynamic group with a LIKE operator ?

For example : Account info : Inventory number LIKE "2020"

Regards, Gilles.

Hi @gillesdubois

If i create dynamic group or saved search with LIKE operator, its need to be updated every year if i want to list 1 year old machines. If i can set date compare with actual date, its automaticly list the actual 1 year old machines dynamicly without need to change search properties.

I think it would be usefull for administrative reports.

OCS Support these kind of query but the info need to be in the datetime format. Like the last inventory field. If you create an account info in datetime format you should be able to perform search based on a number of day interval

How can i do this querry? If i make a search, only few options available like: equal, more than, less then, like, different, not null... Okay, i accept it needed a datetime format data, but with this, it would be helpful if we can create a search like: X days old machines based on actual date.
