Since most deployments involve installing applications, it is a best practice to have PDQ Inventory run scans after deployments to keep its database up-to-date. In PDQ Deploy you can enable the Scan After Deployment setting in Preferences > Deployments to trigger post-deployment PDQ Inventory scans. For more detailed information, see Scanning After Deployment and Scanning in Deployments Preferences.
NOTE: This feature is available only in Pro or Enterprise mode and also requires PDQ Inventory version 3.1 or later in Pro or Enterprise mode. PDQ Inventory scans computers and collects hardware, software, and Windows configuration data. PDQ Deploy can use this data to create lists of computers that need specific applications or updates for Target Lists, to determine when offline target computers come online (Heartbeat schedules), and wake up offline target computers before deployments (Wake-on-LAN). For more information about PDQ Inventory, see our website at http://www.adminarsenal.com/pdq-inventory.
PDQ Deploy can send deployment status email notifications when deployments complete (Pro or Enterprise mode required). For this feature to work, the PDQ Deploy mail server must be configured in Preferences > Mail Server and a Post Deployment Notification option must be selected in the Deploy Once window or the Schedule window > Options tab. You can use one of the two default deployment notifications, Full Details or Summary, or create a custom Post Deployment Notification in Preferences > Mail Server.
NOTE: Notifications are not available in the Deploy Once window or the Schedule window until a least one email recipient has been designated for the specified Post Deployment Notification. To designate an email recipient, from the Deploy Once window or the Schedule window > Options tab click Edit Notifications.
