Detecting the absence of something is always difficult, so I prefer to setup a default value (in this case a default patching schedule), instead. You can see more here:
https://www.itninja.com/question/report-to-find-clients-not-within-a-patching-schedule
That being said, in addition to the query posted by JasonEgg on that post, here is what I came up with:
SELECT MACHINE.ID, MACHINE.NAME, COUNT(PATCHLINK_SCHEDULE_ID) as SCHEDULECOUNT
FROM MACHINE
LEFT JOIN PATCHLINK_SCHEDULE_MACHINE_STATUS on MACHINE_ID = MACHINE.ID
GROUP BY MACHINE.ID
HAVING SCHEDULECOUNT = 0
Rather than looking at the patch schedules themselves, this report looks for machines that do not have any entries in the PATCHLINK_SCHEDULE_MACHINE_STATUS table, which means patching has never run on those systems.

Many Thanks for your reply, The sql query you posted has opened up another question which im looking into.
What i have seen though is that we have quite a few patch schedules so that this query would not give me the results of the machines that was not applied to a certain patch scheduled. - markc0 4 years ago
