SCCM Report All Installed Software

I have an audit comming up and I would like to create a custom dash board for the auditors.  This way they could find the info that they are looking for direclty.  

One of the reports that we will be giving them is the Count of all instances of software registered with Add or Remove Programs.  The problem with this report is that it prompts you to enter in the group that you would like to run it against.  This does not work for dashboards.  

I want to copy the report and change the sql query in order to give it the name of the group as opposed to prompting for it.  

I cannot figure out how to do this.  I will copy the code bellow and the group I want to run it against is Collection ID SMS000ES.  If someone could help and explain what they are doing, I hopefully will be able to grasp this and apply it to other reports that they will want.  

Thanks 
SELECT DisplayName0, Count(*) AS 'Count', Publisher0, Version0, @CollID as CollectionID
FROM v_Add_Remove_Programs arp
JOIN v_FullCollectionMembership fcm on arp.ResourceID=fcm.ResourceID 
WHERE fcm.CollectionID = @CollID
GROUP BY DisplayName0, Publisher0, Version0 
ORDER BY Publisher0, Version0

From the SQL edit screen look to the right and you will see a Prompts button.  Clicking it will show you the variable for CollID and side query used to look up those values.  If you want to just hardcode in a particular collection you can delete that prompt and then here is the fixed SQL query:

 SELECT DisplayName0, Count(*) AS 'Count', Publisher0, Version0, @CollID as CollectionID
FROM v_Add_Remove_Programs arp
JOIN v_FullCollectionMembership fcm on arp.ResourceID=fcm.ResourceID
WHERE fcm.CollectionID = SMS000ES
GROUP BY DisplayName0, Publisher0, Version0
ORDER BY Publisher0, Version0

Oops, remove the "@CollID as CollectionID" from the SELECT line too

OK, I made the adjustments as listed and we are now getting the following error.  I did remove the Prompt as well and that part did work.  

An error occurred when the report was run. The details are as follows:
Invalid column name 'SMS000ES'.
Error Number: -2147217900
Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Native Error: 207

I will copy the code bellow

SELECT DisplayName0, Count(*) AS 'Count', Publisher0, Version0, 
FROM v_Add_Remove_Programs arp
JOIN v_FullCollectionMembership fcm on arp.ResourceID=fcm.ResourceID 
WHERE fcm.CollectionID = SMS000ES
GROUP BY DisplayName0, Publisher0, Version0 
ORDER BY Publisher0, Version0

May want to verify that the collection you are trying to run this report against is truly called SMS000ES.  Right click on the collection and view properties.  Rename in the query accordingly.

Nope defiantly SMS000ES.  Any other thoughts?  Your help is defiantly appreciated.

Put single, possibly double, quotes around the collection ID name.

Hi tdisalvo

You must declare the @CollID as this is a linked report, remove the prompt as socrates suggested and then use the following in your SQL Query.

Cheers
Declare @CollID char(8)
Set @CollID = 'SMS000ES'

SELECT DisplayName0, Count(*) AS 'Count', Publisher0, Version0, @CollID as CollectionID
FROM v_Add_Remove_Programs arp
JOIN v_FullCollectionMembership fcm on arp.ResourceID=fcm.ResourceID 
WHERE fcm.CollectionID = @CollID
GROUP BY DisplayName0, Publisher0, Version0 
ORDER BY Publisher0, Version0
