Tier 1 Inventory Adapters restrict output for testing

It is not possible to change the out-of-the-box inventory adapters in FlexNet Manager Suite Cloud in this way. Some approaches that can be considered are:

Take a copy of your SCCM database, delete data for comptuer records that you don't want imported in to FlexNet Manager Suite, and then import the remaining data.
Modify the queries used to extract data from ADDM into the staging database to only extract the data you want, so that when the adapter runs it only picks that up.
Configure a business adapter to set the status of all inventory devices you are not interested in to "ignored" on a regular basis.

With FlexNet Manager Suite On-premises, it is technically possible (with caution) to tweak out-of-the-box inventory adapters as you have more control. See the following discussion threads for more:
