Third-Party Update Filtering based on 'Product Category' on MECM(SCCM)

Question

We need to use SCUP (System Center Updates Publisher:) when creating the Third-Party (update) catalog. Upon enrolling the 'update' along with the vendor and product on SCUP, we can categorize the update on the 'Categories Workspace'.

These categories can be selected on the 'Select Categories' tab on the 'Third-Pary Software Updates Catalogs Property Sheet'.

The list of 'All Software Updates' under 'Software Library', however, does not include any information about the category information column even though it contains a 'Product Category' column.

Are there any ways to filer updates according to categories?

@CalgaryFlame , Thanks for posting in Q&A. From your description, it seems you have created a category in SCUP, but the relevant information could not be found in the SCCM console. If there's any misunderstanding, feel free to let us know.

Based on my experience, Categories you created in SCUP cannot be synced to SCCM console. If you have such a requirement, you may try to feedback to MECM UserVoice to see if we can get this in the future.
