Assign specific day of the week for updates

We have a large group of employees that is looking to have updates to their applications occur on Friday after 5PM. At the moment, we can specify number of days after publish date, but that day of the week is likely to vary. Because of that, there is no way that I'm aware of to make the update always land on Friday.


I suppose that we could schedule the sync from Patch My PC to Intune so that it only occurs on let's say Thursday. We could then set up the assignment to make it available 1 day after publishing. This is not the ideal state but perhaps a workaround.


Wondering if there is a way that Patch My PC could allow for the user to choose a day of the week for the update. Then, do the math for us by using publish date plus however many days are necessary to make it land on the right day of the week.

    We are looking for something very similar. For example, we would like to stage the updates on the PmPC server and schedule when to deploy said patches from the PmPC server.

    I like this idea and it will be really helpful.

    Upvoting this idea for our organization which would prefer to attempt to batch updates on certain days of the week to reduce end user friction vs security posture... Don't get me started but this is a top ask from management to address update fatigue.
