To be functional, each Configuration Manager 2007 package must contain at least one program, although many contain more than one. These programs are used to define how the application from the package will be used on that client. As a result, the program must include all appropriate references to script files or command switches.
To create a program within a package, you must have Modify permission for the Package Security object type or for the specific package instance. For more information about security permissions, see Classes and Instances for Object Security in Configuration Manager.
