SCCM Folders and Collections
SoftwareCentral needs some defined collections and folders on the SCCM server.
A user folder named “Software Distribution”. This folder will hold collections used for deploying applications to users.
A device folder named “Software Distribution”. This folder will hold collections used for deploying applications to devices, and one more device folder name “Software Distribution Packages”. This folder will hold collections used for deploying packages to devices.
In SoftwareCentral, go to “Settings” and select “SCCM Folders and Collections”:
Press create default structure, this will create the three described folders.
Or you can manually create the three folders or use your existing folders.
