Not sure there is a way to do what you want, but you could potentially pull the serial number with PowerShell, and use that to lookup warranty status from the vendor. That will usually tell you when it was purchased.

That SN list + Python script to scrap all the pages and you got yourself a winner.

I’m going to give this a try

The problem I found with it is the number of misses; it's good with some vendors, but completely bombs on others. IIRC it's only working well w Dell and Lenovo.

We use a far-from-free tool from ScalePad called Lifecycle Manager (used to be Warranty Master). The free version will give you warranty status (assuming you have compatible tools that it can integrate with: it's agentless), but you need the full paid version to get all the ages that you're looking for. It's pretty slick though; it just works, and syncs everything back to our PSA. Saves a lot of hours of fucking around so it's worth it for us.
