Report showing the date the last time a computer had patches deployed
I'm looking for help creating a report for my KACE K1000 (v.6.0.101863) that would show a list of all the computers in my inventory and the date the last time patches were deployed to them. Either that, or a report showing the number of how many patches each computer is missing. I'm looking for a way to find out which machines aren't being patched regularly.
Thanks!

Assuming that you can't use kace for windows updates like me, an easier option might be running a script that counts and/or gives you a list of what is installed. You could then create a custom inventory based on that file. Then you could run a report and sort by the number of patches installed or by looking for a recent patch.
Try something along these lines of this vb script.
