About organization filters

About organization filters

Organization filters are similar to labels, but they serve a specific purpose: Organization filters automatically assign devices to organizations when devices are inventoried.

There are two types of organization filters:

•
Data Filters: Assigns devices to organizations automatically based on search criteria. When devices are inventoried, they are assigned to the organization if they meet the criteria. This filter is similar to Smart Labels in that it assigns devices to organizations automatically if they match specified criteria.
•
LDAP Filters: Assigns devices to organizations automatically based on LDAP or Active Directory interaction. When devices are inventoried, the query runs against the LDAP server. If devices meet the criteria, they are automatically assigned to the organization.

2.
Provide the following information:

Option

Description

Name

The name of the label. This name appears on the Labels list.

Description

Any additional information you want to provide.

Alternate Location Path

(Optional) The alternate download location for Managed Installations, File Synchronizations, and other deployments that are performed on items assigned to this label. The location you specify replaces the string KACE_ALT_LOCATION.

CAUTION:
 
CAUTION: You should not have a device in two labels that both specify a value in this field.

Alternate Location Login

If you specify an alternate download location, specify the path to the location.

Alternate Location Password

If you specify an alternate download location, specify the username and password for the location.

Restrict Label Usage To

(Optional) The categories of items to which the label or label group can be applied. If you do not restrict label usage, the label or label group can be applied to any item. However, if you restrict the label or label group to categories such as Applications and Patches, that label or label group can be applied only to Applications and Patches; it cannot be applied to other items, such as Devices.

Meter Software Usage

Enable metering on devices that have the label assigned. This enables metering on the devices only. To meter software, you need to also enable metering for individual applications.

Allow Application Control

Enable Application Control on devices. Software marked as Not Allowed is prevented from running on devices to which the label is applied.

Restrict to Label Group

(Optional) The label group to which the label is assigned. To assign the label to a label group, click Edit next to the Label Group field, then select a label group. This is useful if you have a large number of labels and you want to organize them into sub-labels. For example, you could include the labels of your licensed applications in a group label named Licenses. In addition, labels inherit any restrictions of the groups to which they belong.

Scoped to User Role

The user role associated with this label. When a label is associated with a user role, the user actions are limited to only those devices, scripts, and schedules that are associated with that label. For more information about user roles, see Add or edit User Roles.
