Unified: Windows Autopatch and Windows Update for Business deployment service

Windows update management for enterprises just got simpler with Windows Autopatch. This consolidation is the result of integrating the functionality previously known as Windows Update for Business deployment service into Windows Autopatch, providing a one-stop-shop solution for enterprise update management. The unified dashboard, now available in the Microsoft Intune admin center, has four sections: update policies, update groups, update status, and update reports.
Whether you have been using Windows Autopatch or Windows Update for Business deployment service, this update management experience is becoming more streamlined. Current license rights and functionalities will remain the same. Additionally, a new, unified dashboard in the Intune admin center will enable you to effortlessly manage update policies and device groups, generate reports, and monitor update status.
If you are considering this update management solution, visit the official announcement at Consolidating update management for enterprises. The new solution has already been implemented, so no action is required on your part.
