Hello All,

Can we create a Advance Search or a smart group to list of Not or Either latest version of an application.
Tried this combination but result null.
Application Title    has      Microsoft Outlook.app
and
Application Version    is not    Latest Version

Not sure where I'm doing wrong.

 

You'll need to add Microsoft Outlook as a Patch Management title, and use that in your smart group. "Application Version" expects a version number or regex.


I prefer regex for this.

 

Use the following script to help generate the regex:

Then create a smart group like so:


@cbrewer- Sure, but what happens when Outlook gets updated? Using a Patch Management title will avoid having to change anything later down the line.

Regex is awesome, but really only when you have a target version in mind.

Thank you, I will go through this too.


If understated correctly, you should be able to let patch reporting work for you:

PatchReporting Outlook   less than  Latest Version is what we use, seems to work for our needs

This is what I described above and in my screenshot, and works perfectly here too.

I've never seen this done. I might try this in a test enviroment for my new prestage I'm creating with JAMF Connect 2.27.0 being installed at enrollment. Then apply the smart group to push 2.29.0. This regex looks promising.
