Computers more than X years old

[ImAMacGuy]

I'm trying to setup some reporting for management and I wanted to setup a smart group or something to check for machines more than X years old or something along those lines. I didn't see an option in smart group that looked like it would do that. Anybody have any suggestions?

The quickest way to do it a search would just be a model year search, but that doesn't quite match the "over X years old" question.
Now granted, given that years don't change that often, you could probably just build a broad search (ie Model year like 2011 OR year like 2012, etc) and take care of most of your needs with minimal adjustment every year.

If you have GSX access and update warranty data for your machines, you'll get a purchase date you can search on. We use this all the time.

We are using this. It is approximate, but awesome.

Then I have a smart group that will report if it is over 1465 days ago as we refresh every 4 years now.

i would recommend using the models for criteria, as was mentioned above
