Duplicate serial numbers¶
Find potential orphaned Machines with same serial number. This may happen if existing machines get re-installed and/or renamed. The IsNewest flag marks the PC with the newest scan date, most likely the currently active machine.
Seraial numbers are not always unique
While most enterprise class PCs do have a unique serial number, this may not be the case with some generic PC models.
