Purpose
This document provides information about a requirement to be able to successfully utilize the 'Software Upgrades' available in Shavlik Patch.
Above: Example of the 'Software Upgrades' that are now available in Shavlik Patch. (Plug-in only, not available when publishing via SCUP)
Symptoms
If you can successfully publish the 'Software Upgrades', but they are not showing up within All Software Updates after synchronizing WSUS/SCCM you most likely need to verify the requirement shown in the resolution below.

To do this:
- In SCCM, go to the Administration section.
- Expand Site Configuration, then click on Sites.
- Right click on the site, then go to Configure Site Components > Software Update Point.
