How do we set PurchaseOrderId using Get-WindowsAutoPilotInfo.ps1

We would like to use intune to manage all our existing and new Windows computers. We have several offices and today we use different computer configuration policies for different locations. Today, we...

Hi Oliver,

This requires opening the CSV file and adding the order id to the end of the file and also modifying or removing the header, we have tried and this and it works. But this is not practical for us, we are planning to use Windows Configuration Packages on USB drive to pre-configure the device and fetch the CSV file (to be executed by remote non-IT users), we are capturing the CSV file via Azure storage account. We would like to automate the adding of order id, we are able to do this by using our own PowerShell script, but we are wondering if we can pass an additional parameter to Get-WindowsAutoPilotInfo.ps1 script to add the order id, looks this is not possible at the moment.

Best regards,

Correct there is no support in the script at the moment but you can easily modify and extend the script to support it. Then you can target group of devices with different OrderIDs to accomplish your goal. Just add a new parameter in the beginning of the script and add this new variable to the custom ps object and modify the csv output to include ",Order ID". Pretty straight forward 👍

Oliver Kieselbach Hi Oliver, you say to use (or add) the OrderID column in the Autopilot CSV file, however this is used as a tag. According to a few articles Ive seen there is also a PurchaseOrderID colum that can be added to the CSV. However I can not get this to work.
On one technet article it says this can only be set by OEM. Is this true?

  We have the same issue. It appears that PurchaseOrderID is a closely guarded secret and the only work around I have seen online is to cheat and use OrderId (Group Tag) and shove multiple items in to it so that you can do muliple things.

  Hi Ewan Monro,
  
  no, OrderID can also be set by adding it to the csv file for import. This OrderID field is then mapped to to Group Tag in the Intune Portal :-). This is what you can modify and use later for AAD dynamic grouping.
  
  to import with a custom Order ID use a csv like this:
  
  Device Serial Number,Windows Product ID,Hardware Hash,Order ID
  1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-1234-12,,<yourhash>,MyOrderID
  
  it will result in something like this:
  
  best,
