I apologize if this has already been mentioned; I haven't read through all the 
emails.  but if I understand the concern in the brief scan I did of this email 
thread... the issue is that in-console, you aren't seeing the numbers you 
expect to see; but if you look at sql or ssrs reports, you do.

The answer (according to me is...) The console lies, lies, lies.  All the time. 
 The reason is because for a lot of the console numbers, especially to do with 
summarized data, is dependent upon various "summarization" tasks.  Which may or 
may not have finished.  Perhaps your server was busy doing other things, like, 
say... actually managing your clients.  so the summarization tasks never 
finished.  We have our summarization task cycle set to the maximum allowed, of 
31 days.  Because if it's less, ALL your server wants to do (once you are a 
large size) is summarization.  all. the. time.

A better explanation from Steve Thompson:  ConfigMgr Software Update 
Summarization 
Task<https://stevethompsonmvp.wordpress.com/2013/07/03/configmgr-software-update-summarization-task/>
  Basically, we tell the people who use our console to never, not ever, believe 
the console numbers.  Use reports.

Have you checked whether the clients have successfully completed the scan after 
the sync? There's a report to see last scan state.

Thanks, but neither appears to apply to our setup.  :/

distributing to one of our DP’s, I re-ran and the content distributed properly. 
I have deployed like I’ve done tons of times, but I’m seeing none as being 
required and clients are not getting updates. The things I found on Google were 
no help. The only change that has been made in our environment was upgrading 
from 2012 R2 to 2012 R2 SP1 CU2.
