Lmit Technicians to Managing Dynamic group
We are ready to add our Desktop Support Technicians to Desktop Central, and what I've found is I can't just assign them to managing a Dynamic Group, as I desire. I want to limit their ability to deploy software, or updates, to prevent them from ever deploying to servers on accident, or from rebooting servers etc. I've created Dynamic Groups by OS type (which I expected to find a "desktop" category built in, but have not. And I can ask them to only deploy to these groups, but I want to limit their

Generate patch summary 10.0.93
I just updated my server to 10.0.93 and notice that under the all system view. I noticed that when I refresh the page computers that were either scanned then patched that had missing patches or computer that were scanned and have missing patches just show up.

"Systems Requiring Reboot" Patch report not available as Scheduled report option
Build Version:10.0.84 As you can see in the attached screenshots, the "Systems Requiring Reboot" is available as an on-demand report, but is not listed under the available reports that can be scheduled. This effectively deems the report almost useless as we need to notify systems administrators of servers that requiring rebooting post-patch installation on a weekly basis. Is this a known bug or is it by design?
