## Periodic assessment
2020

Periodic assessment is an update setting on a machine that allows you to enable automatic periodic checking of updates by update management center (preview). We recommend that you enable this property on your machines as it allows update management center (preview) to fetch latest updates for your machines every 24 hours and enables you to view the latest compliance status of your machines. You can enable this setting using update settings flow as detailed [here](manage-update-settings.md#configure-settings-on-single-vm) or enable it at scale by using [Policy](periodic-assessment-at-scale.md).

The Update management center (preview) respects many of the settings specified to control the Windows Update client. If you use settings to enable non-Windows updates, the Update management center (preview) will also manage those updates. If you want to enable downloading of updates before an update deployment occurs, update deployment can be faster, more efficient, and less likely to exceed the maintenance window.

To configure the automatic downloading of updates without automatically installing them, you can use Group Policy to [configure the Automatic Updates setting](/windows-server/administration/windows-server-update-services/deploy/4-configure-group-policy-settings-for-automatic-updates#configure-automatic-updates) to 3. This setting enables downloads of the required updates in the background, and notifies you that the updates are ready to install. In this way, update management center (Preview) remains in control of schedules, but allows downloading of updates outside the maintenance window. This behavior prevents `Maintenance window exceeded` errors in update management center (preview).

Update management center (Preview) supports WSUS settings. You can specify sources for scanning and downloading updates using instructions in [Specify intranet Microsoft Update service location](/windows/deployment/update/waas-wu-settings#specify-intranet-microsoft-update-service-location). By default, the Windows Update client is configured to download updates from Windows Update. When you specify a WSUS server as a source for your machines, the update deployment fails, if the updates aren't approved in WSUS.
