View Software Update Processes

The Software updates for ConfigMgr page in Right Click Tools Patching displays information about software update processes set up to deploy third-party application updates using Configuration Manager's software updates management. From this page, you can add a new software update process and edit or delete software update processes.

Software update information:

  • Software update process name
  • Environment: The Configuration Manager environment targeted by the process.
  • Applications: Number of applications in the software update process. Click the number to view and manage the applications.
  • Date Processed
  • Status of the software update process:
    • Successful - The application was imported successfully into Configuration Manager.
    • Running - The application import is in progress.
    • Pending run - A new software updates process that has not started. To start the process, click the ellipsis (...)  in the Actions column and click Run.
    • Warning - The application was imported into Configuration Manager, but Patching wasn't able to create the software update process.
    • Error - The application import failed and requires troubleshooting. Hover over the Error icon for details.

Possible reasons for an error:

  • You attempt to choose an environment that does not currently support software update processes, such as an Intune environment.
  • You select third-party applications that are not supported in WSUS. An upcoming Right Click Tools Patching release will disable applications that are incompatible with WSUS so that they aren't selectable. You can continue to update these applications using a deployment process.
  • Actions 
    • Edit software update process details including the environment and the applications included.
    • Click the ellipsis (...) to Run or Delete the software update process. A deletion cannot be undone.
