The Update List Wizard allows you to add software updates to a new or existing update list. The update list is used to initiate deployments for a set of updates without having to manually select the updates in the set each time a new deployment is created. You must have Create rights on the Configuration items class to create an update list.

Note
Adding software updates to an existing update list does not add the updates to deployments previously created using the update list.

The following procedure provides the steps necessary to add software updates to an update list.
