I am having trouble using Jamf Pro to run the SUPERMAN script. It works for minor updates of 14.0 but not working on 13.6. Any Suggestions?

Did you read the SUPERMAN wiki documentation on how to configure it to install upgrades?  Ask on the SUPERMAN Mac Admins slack channel.  The developer is active daily there and will answer your question

I don't use superman myself, but my guess is its access related. Superman leans on CLI, which Apple has been very vocal to move away from. To go from 13.5 > 13.6 you just need volume ownership, to go from 13.x > 14.x you need Admin access. I'd wager the logged in user does not have admin access, and in turn cannot authorize the upgrade.

Which do you use with JamfPro then?

They advised me and I figured out how to update the flags. Then it started to work.
