Conformance Reporting

Conformance Reporting tells you whether Required Updates have, or have not, been installed on specific machines. You can, for example, deploy a required update, re­query the machines, and run a Conformance report to see if any machines were missed (these could have been offline for example, or unreachable because of hardening).

To check the Conformance Report configuration, go to View > Options > Conformance Report

>Include Not Installed, and verify that “Include required updates that are not installed” is checked (as shown below). Make sure Include Installed options are un­checked. This will simplify the report for evaluation purposes.

Go to Reports > Conformance Report and run the report for your selected machine.

You should get output similar to below in the Web Browser tab of UpdateEXPERT.
