Hi Lynn,

Yes you can combine them into spiceworks.

1. First is create a back up of your database. Go to settings and back up configuration and click back up now
2. Install your spiceworks in your computer
3. Exit to spiceworks and delete all database information
4. Transfer the back up into the new installation
5. Recreate your back up settings

Good luck and have a pleasant day.

Follow the instructions carefully.

Hi,

This is possible to do. First if your Spiceworks is below the version 5.0, it is better to upgrade it before following any of the instructions. I think using Remote Collectors will sort out your issues with combining multiple Active directories. For more instructions read below link about Remote Collector.

I hope you will be able to sort out your issue.
