The Simplest Way to Get Group Policy Objects’ Reports

Once I was asked for making our Group Policy Objects’ Report for Audit purposes I’ve started to search the best and the simplest way to do this. I have found SDM GPMC PowerShell Cmdlets 1.4 with which help it is possible to make the Report for each GPO with a prefix where it was linked.

Get-GPO -All -Domain domain.com | foreach `
    {
    $name = $_.DisplayName;
    $prefix = Get-SDMGPLink -Name $name | foreach {$_.name};
    Get-GPOReport $_.id -ReportType HTML -Domain domain.com -Path e:\Report\$prefix.$name.html
    }

P.S. I am using:

• $Host.Version 2.0
• GroupPolicy Module 1.0.0.0
• SDM GPMC PowerShell Cmdlets 1.4

   This is really useful – totally should be part of the Group Policy Management console…

   I was wondering if you might help me – I am trying to report on GPOs in exactly the way you are above, although I need to report back OUs that the GPO is linked to on child domains.

   Is this possible?
