Office Updating

[safetykleen]

Hi.
I’m currently using Batchpatch in conjunction with WSUS(Server 2019)

1. On my WSUS Server. In products and classifications I’ve enabled some Office products.
Is there anything else I need to do in Batchpatch or Group Policy to support the Office Updates?

2.Secondaly the need count in WSUS vs BatchPatch is totally out. WSUS says I need 29 updates on a Server but the server itself says only 4. In Batchpatch my Server settings are set to default\managed. Server for Software and Drivers and then all the classifications. I also dont have any filters set?

Thanks for awesome product

In BatchPatch you don’t have to do anything else for the Office updates. I don’t think you would need to do anything in Group Policy either.

The various counts that the WSUS maintains will virtually never be accurate unless you are extremely closely managing your WSUS. This is not a BatchPatch issue. You’ll find in almost any WSUS environment, regardless of which other tools are being used (or even when no other tools are being used at all), that the counts in the WSUS aren’t generally going to reflect any reality that the administrator cares about.
