When checking Inventory, under 'local user accounts' I see some of the inventoried iMacs/MBPros/MBAirs displaying both the 'LOCAL USER ACCOUNTS' & 'HIDDEN LOCAL USER ACCOUNTS' so under the local user accounts it will have a total around 80. While on other iMacs/MBPros/MBAirs it is just displaying the 'LOCAL USER ACCOUNTS' only for a total of around 4 (whatever the computer has).

Has anyone else seen this?
computers are all getting enrolled the same way, quick add.pkg
how would i get those 'HIDDEN LOCAL USER ACCOUNTS' not to display in the inventory?

it doesn't seem to be a big deal, but I don't like the inconsistency. thanks

Hallo tcandela,

Go to Management Settings ==> in the tab Computer Management - Management Framework select Inventory Collection uncheck Include hidden system accounts and press Done.

After that do a inventory update on you machines.
