SCCM Console Debug View

If SCCM's console isn't providing enough information for you, you also have the option to run it in "debug view mode". This mode adds additional actions to each node that allow you to view CM Object Properties in addition to the standard view. This is particularly handy when needing data for scripting and advanced troubleshooting.

Load the console in debug view with the command: adminconsole.msc /SMS:debugview

You'll need to navigate to the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminUI\bin folder to directly launch this application.

Other console extensions are available as well to change the console's language as well as ignore and/or reset extensions. You can learn more about extending the console at this address: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb693533.aspx
