Morning IT Pros!

I come today with a rather weird issue. I have recently switches my entire organisation from Current Channel to Monthly Enterprise Channel for our Office 365 environment.We wanted to have more control and have patches released to clients with a little more time for testing each month.

However, I can see that even if majority of our clients have been switched successfully to the new Channel, they still report requirement for Current Channel patches. This is what it looks like:

So we have 711 clients running the new channel. Majority has version 16.0.13001.20384. Now when I go to SCCM updates section for O365 I can see that my clients report requirement for Current Channel patches (which is newer version obviously) but there is a monthly enterprise channel patches too that are newer and clients are not reporting that they need it

Anyone having the slightest why it behaves like that?

Appreciate your input!

    Ok never mind..It was me...I was missing a correct value in the registry for UpdatesChannel. Had it set to Current. Once I changed it to Monthly Enterprise value, it all kicked off. Sorry for spamming!
