SCCM - Software Inventory Import Script

This was a script which I wrote up that can automate adding files and file types which can be added into the Software Inventory using the SCCM SDK script

How the script works

If you have a list of files and file extensions and with wildcards etc.. The script will be able to format the list into the SCCM SDK and create a new client settings configuration and apply the files and file extensions in which will be added to the Software Inventory section.

If the client settings configuration does not exist then it will create it.

Variables to take note of

·$SiteCode – Site code of your SCCM environment

·$File – Location of the list of files and file extensions

·$ClientSettingsName – Name of the client settings which the Software Inventory settings will be updated on
