Creating Assets that auto-update their "Remaining" column

Adam_Dzyacky

I'm not sure if this is a bug, a shortcoming in how I'm PowerShelling, or what - but Assets that have a "Contents of this list count towards used Seats" set to true, upon assignment through PowerShell do not update their views for the "Seats Remaining" column. If one were to through the console/portal use the "Update License" function it resolves this tally immediately.

Is this by design? Or am I simply missing some type of "invoke recalculation" function?

Hey Adam

It is by design if setting that setting through PowerShell, then you will need to either wait for the software asset sync workflow to run, or open it via a console SWA Form which will recalculate it, hit the refresh button on the SWA form, or calculate that value with powershell setting property "RunLicenceWorkflowNow" which would make workflow run within the next two minutes example:

Get-SCSMObject -Class (Get-SCSMClass cireson.assetmanagement.settings) | fl *

Kudos to @joivan_hedrick for this one.
