Hi Chris,
It comes down to the detection methods for applications that are made available to users don't automatically run when logging onto to the system which means they wont appear in the installed software list. The evaluation cycle will run all of the computer targeted applications, and any application that has been “installed” from the application catalog. Hope that helps Steve From: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, 20 September 2014 3:13 AM To: [email protected] I am working towards moving our application deployments from Packages to Applications and also leveraging the Software Centre / Application Catalogue in SCCM 2012 R2 for self service use for our users - I have everything working, I can install and uninstall applications as expected from Software Centre and Application Catalogue and I am not having an issue here... but I'm wondering about the detection of installed applications. I have software installed on a system, and then the same software deployed to the user and when I open the Application Catalogue I see the software available for me to install. Where the question comes in is, if I have a detection set up for that software (say MSI product code or registry entry) - should I not be seeing this software under the Installed Software section of the Software Centre? The software was installed outside of SCCM. I've run the Application Deployment Evaluation Cycle and the App*.log file for the client show only detection for software I have installed via Software Centre / Application Catalogue. I would have assumed that during the evaluation cycle the products would be detected and would be listed on the Installed Software tab of Software Centre whether installed outside of SCCM or by the Software Centre / Application Catalogue. Am I missing something?
