4.2.4 Setting the view items

You use the View Items Settings dialog box of the Count Clients wizard to select the inventory items you want to display in the Details pane. If you do not set view items for counting hosts, the previous view item settings remain in effect. However, when an inventory item is deleted, it is excluded automatically from the view items.

The default is that all items except for user inventory information are displayed.
