Greetings.
I am running SCCM 2010 and I am trying to use the Task Sequence Application Deployment type but I cannot get it to work. I have 3 apps that are configured as Packages in SCCM. I have created a task sequence and added the 3 applications using the Install Packages task only. (I have also tried using the command line task instead of install packages and called each package within but did not help.) The Task Sequence does not contain a boot image and the high-impact task sequence option is NOT selected. I have created a new application manually, added a task sequence deployment type and set my previously created task sequence as the "Install Task Sequence" and I configured the detection settings. I deployed the application with the task sequence deployment type to a user collection. I logged into a client, refreshed policy until the application appeared in the Software Center, tried to install it and it failed shortly after. According to smsts.log I am getting the following:
I've seen errors similar to "no matching task sequence policy assignments received" when doing OSD and usually that means the client doesn't have a task sequence deployed to it but this shouldn't be the case here. All of the documentation related to using this deployment type that I found, and there isn't much available, doesn't mention about deploying the task sequence and if I understand this deployment method, I shouldn't have to. To test, I deployed the task sequence as available to the device and it did not make a difference. Has anyone had success using this deployment type and can you help tell me what I am missing? Thanks.

Hi @Mike G ,
Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.
First, we can check that the program specified whether have the Allow this program to be installed from a list of software packages in the “Install Software” task sequence step without being advertised option selected.
We could select this option in the Advanced tab of the exiting program Properties.
For more details, please refer to this link:
