Outdated results for SCCM 2012 queries

Whenever I run a query, the results are horribly outdated. The Last Login Time Stamp shows as months ago even though I know the systems are being logged into more recently. I mainly use the queries to obtain the current versions of installed software, and the outdated/incorrect results prevent me from deploying updates to the appropriate machines.

This is happening even after Software Scans are run. Does anyone know why SCCM isn't able to update its information faster? Should I perform a manual Client Notification ->Download Computer Policy on all of my machines?

    First, what version of ConfigMgr are you actually running? ConfigMgr Current Branch or ConfigMgr 2012?

    Next, last login timestamp is a value pulled from Active Directory and because of the way it is populated in AD can be up to 14 days old so this is by design and expected and not in any way indicative of an issue in ConfigMgr. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/askds/the-lastlogontimestamp-attribute-what-it-was-designed-for-and-how-it-works for more info.
