Common mistakes.
- A. NOIDMIF files extend hardware inventory with custom data fields and are not designed to collect or report installed application version numbers.
- C. Hardware inventory collects system resource data such as CPU, RAM, and disk configuration - not granular per-application version details.
- D. Software metering rules track application usage frequency and duration, not which installed version is present on a given machine.
- E. Adding a WMI class to sms_def.mof extends the scope of hardware inventory collection and does not enable software file version reporting.
