Hello,

We use Microsoft SCCM to collect hardware/software inventory from endpoints. We are looking to switch this out and use the Flexera inventory agent instead, just like we do for servers. I have a question that I can't find an answer for. When an agent is deployed to an endpoint, either on it's own (manual or via SCCM) or as part of an image, at what point does the inventory run, and at what point is the inventory sent to the Beacon? It is immediately for both? I have a scenario for this which is super important to us. If someone leaves the business, their machine is handed back to local IT, and the machine is wiped, and then rebuilt with our standard desktop image. The same goes for brand new machines, where they will be built from an image. They may then go into stock immediately after ready to be issued to a new user. The machine could potentially sit in stock for several months and never be powered on, but we need visibility of these machines in ITAM, so that we can manage the deployment of commercial software applications. I've attached a couple of images of our agent schedule. 

Thanks
