You would need to edit the wmiqueries.xml file that GPInventory uses and
add your own custom query. To query for the application of a specific
GPO you would add something similar to the following (making sure you
replace the GUIDName value with that of the GPO you are checking for):

 

<ManagedObject Name="Version of GPO computer settings applied"
Query="select version from RSOP_GPO where accessDenied='false' and
enabled='true' and filterAllowed='true' and not version='0' and
GUIDName='{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}'" Root="ComputerRSOP"
/>

 

Remember that Computer/User RSOP is separate, so if your GPO has both
user and computer settings you would need to check for both. I haven't
tested this myself, but it should return the version applied and if the
version is Null (blank) then the GPO hasn't been applied to that system.
