If you are not using OMS:
1. Go to the [Upgrade Analytics page on Microsoft.com](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=799190&clcid=0x409) and click **Sign up** to kick off the onboarding process.
2. Sign in to Operations Management Suite (OMS). You can use either a Microsoft Account or a Work or School account to create a workspace. If your company is already using Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), use a Work or School account when you sign in to OMS. Using a Work or School account allows you to use identities from your Azure AD to manage permissions in OMS.
3. Create a new OMS workspace. Enter a name for the workspace, select the workspace region, and provide the email address that you want associated with this workspace. Select **Create**.
4. If your organization already has an Azure subscription, you can link it to your workspace. Note that you may need to request access from your organizations Azure administrator.

To ensure that user computers are receiving the most up to date data from Microsoft, we recommend that you establish the following data sharing and analysis processes.
- Enable automatic updates for the compatibility update and related KBs. These KBs are updated frequently to include the latest application and driver issue information as we discover it during testing.
- Schedule the Upgrade Analytics deployment script to automatically run so that you dont have to manually initiate an inventory scan each time the compatibility update KBs are updated. Computers are re-scanned only when the compatibility KBs are updated, so if your inventory changes significantly between KB releases you wont see the changes in Upgrade Analytics until you run the script again.
- Schedule monthly user computer scans to view monthly active computer and usage information.
