Clients missing specific Office feature

[MakeBug]

So my company is switching our mail-system, before we were using IBM Notes and now we're switching to an exchange environment. Unfortunately this change was rather spontanoeus so we've not prepared the clients for this eventuality.
Basically we want to use Microsoft Outlook now, but there's not a single client where it's actually installed.

This means I have to update all office installations worldwide to include outlook.
Using the built-in customization tool I've managed to create a very simple package that does the deal.

Now I'm looking for a way to deploy this package to all clients, that have Office (in this case Standard 2016) installed, but are missing Outlook.
That's about 1000 clients at the moment so manually deploying it is not an option. Creating all jobs at once would make it impossible to keep an eye over the deployment and deploying it in batches while technically possible would be a real pain for the unfortunate soul who has to do only that for the next months.

So far I've tried to setup file-scanning to search for the outlook-executable, which is actually working fine, however I don't know how/if I can use this information to filter a report.

Any idea?

Custom file scanning isn't a problem. I already expected that to be necessary but I didn't know, how you can use the information from the scan in your reports.
Thanks for the help

So here's the report I'il be using:

Select Top 1000000 tsysOS.Image As icon,
    tblAssets.AssetID,
    tblAssets.AssetName,
    tblAssets.Username,
    tblAssets.Lastseen
From tblAssets
    Inner Join tblAssetCustom On tblAssets.AssetID = tblAssetCustom.AssetID
    Inner Join tsysOS On tsysOS.OScode = tblAssets.OScode
    Inner Join tblADComputers On tblAssets.AssetID = tblADComputers.AssetID
Where (tsysOS.OSname Like '%Win 7%' Or tsysOS.OSname Like '%Win 10%')
    And tblAssets.AssetID In (Select Top 1000000 tblSoftware.AssetID
            From tblSoftware Inner Join tblSoftwareUni On tblSoftwareUni.SoftID = tblSoftware.softID
            Where tblSoftwareUni.softwareName Like '%Microsoft Office Standard 2016%')
    And tblAssets.AssetID Not In (Select tblFileVersions.AssetID
        From tblFileVersions
        Where tblFileVersions.FilePathfull Like 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE'
        And tblFileVersions.Found = 'True')
    And tblAssetCustom.State = 1
Order By tblAssets.AssetName

Anyone using the report for himself keep in mind:
- the report shows only Windows 7 and Windows 10 clients. If you want to include other OS, change or remove this part.
- it's created for Office Standard 2016 but I think you can just change the name of the software and the path to the executable.
- don't forget to set up file scanning for the executable and let your assets scan BEFORE you create the report, otherwhise you will have wrong results.
- first time running the report may take a while. If you have over 1000 assets like me the website may even crash a few times. Just let it do it's thing, it will open in the end.
- because basically ALL our clients don't have it installed, my report also includes assets, that don't have any information from the file-scanning on their page yet (not scanned ones, those with scanning errors...). If you want only clients that have been successfully scanned and do not have the executable, use this version of the report instead (small changes but a very different result):

Select Top 1000000 tsysOS.Image As icon,
	tblAssets.AssetID,
	tblAssets.AssetName,
	tblAssets.Username,
	tblAssets.Lastseen
From tblAssets
	Inner Join tblAssetCustom On tblAssets.AssetID = tblAssetCustom.AssetID
	Inner Join tsysOS On tsysOS.OScode = tblAssets.OScode
	Inner Join tblADComputers On tblAssets.AssetID = tblADComputers.AssetID
Where (tsysOS.OSname Like '%Win 7%' Or tsysOS.OSname Like '%Win 10%')
	And	tblAssets.AssetID In (Select Top 1000000 tblSoftware.AssetID
			From tblSoftware Inner Join tblSoftwareUni On tblSoftwareUni.SoftID = tblSoftware.softID
			Where tblSoftwareUni.softwareName Like '%Microsoft Office Standard 2016%')
	And tblAssets.AssetID In (Select tblFileVersions.AssetID
		From tblFileVersions
		Where tblFileVersions.FilePathfull Like 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE'
		And tblFileVersions.Found = 'False')
	And tblAssetCustom.State = 1
Order By tblAssets.AssetName

Sorry, now I understand what your after.

We recently changed our Service Desk tool and we wanted to make sure every computer in our fleet has the new desktop shortcut and any new computer that goes out.

This is the report we have where we check for the file.

Select Top 1000000 tblAssets.AssetID,
  tblAssets.AssetName,
  tblAssets.IPAddress,
  tblAssets.Lastseen,
  tsysOS.OSname,
  tsysOS.Image As icon,
  tblAssets.Domain,
  tblAssets.Username
From tblAssets
  Inner Join tblAssetCustom On tblAssets.AssetID = tblAssetCustom.AssetID
  Inner Join tsysOS On tblAssets.OScode = tsysOS.OScode
Where tblAssets.AssetID Not In (Select tblFileVersions.AssetID
      From tblFileVersions
      Where
        tblFileVersions.FilePathfull Like
        'C:\Users\Public\Desktop\Service Desk Portal.url' And
        tblFileVersions.Found = 'True') And tblAssetCustom.State = 1
Order By tblAssets.AssetName

Still have to have the custom file scanning on. Now that you have your report looking for in your case the outlook.exe you can then create a scheduled deployment task / package that uses that report. Make sure in your package you include re-scan assets. Basically when your machines are next scanned, if that executable is missing, Lansweeper will run the scheduled deployment to install your package, then re-scan the asset which should drop it off the report.

This is the powershell script to remove the Office Store versions on Windows 10.

Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -online | %{if ($_.packagename -match "Microsoft.Office.Desktop") {$_ | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -AllUsers}}

This is our deployment package for Office 365.

Last step just renames the shortcuts via a batch file so when we set our start menu configuration it has the correct names for the XML file.

This is our XML file for the Office install.

Just wanted to clarify what you are wanting to do. Are you wanting to deploy the software or are you after a report to see if office is installed? If it isn't then install Office?
