I don’t have an answer, but I want to thank you for asking the question. It seems that there should be an out-of-box answer. There should be dashboard in the Patch Management Site rather than the custom work you have done.

things like this must really be put forward to IBM Developers, coz its us who are really at the receiving end. they develop it, company you work for braces it, and people who really work on the product have to deal with the frustration.
