Client - Option to Disable Policy Distribution

When onboarding a new client, we typically don't want our scripts making changes until we have our agents deployed, have a lay of the land, and have made sure the incumbent provider has all of their software remove - or we removed it for them. When relying heavily on tagging for scripted automations and deployments, these will kick off upon agent install as the tags are applied once data is retrieved; almost immediately. Without the described feature, the only way I can think of to get around this is to configure a custom field checkbox for "Policy Deployment Enabled", a single script that sets a registry entry depending on the state of the custom field, a tag based on that registry entry, and then modify all other policies to include that tag as required for distribution.

    I would encourage anyone who lands here to upvote the following feature request for a maintenance mode which would apply to this feature request as well.

    An option I have been using with other RMM's is to create an adoption client or unassigned client with the minimum options but without any scripts or things that could alter the endpoint. Once I create the proper account with the correct locations, scripts, etc., I go and move the unassigned endpoints to their corresponding locations.
