Why go off metering rules? Just enable the client setting for metering and go off v_gs_ccm_recentlyusedapps?

Sent: Monday, April 04, 2016 1:55 PM To: ms...@lists.myitforum.com Subject: RE: [mssms] Microsoft True Up Report What is the method for collecting usage data for applications that do not have an existing software metering rule? I too am prepping for a Microsoft true up; we changed over from SCCM 2007 to SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 late last year (parallel environment, no migration). It was our belief that 2012 would auto-generate metering rules, but it turns out it only auto-generates when usage meets/exceeds a default percentage of the environment. Our Visio and Project installs do not meet the threshold, so no rules were auto-generated. When we were on 2007, we were able to create rules that retrieved usage data pre-dating the date when the rules were created, but I am not sure how it was set up and that environment is no longer available for comparison.
