i suggest following:
1. first, start security updates, they're critical organization.
2. in security updates view, make sure superseded column displayed. big help.
3. filter security updates view approval=unapproved , status=needed.
4. sort on superseded column new (not superseded) updates @ top of list.
5. select of unapproved/needed/notsuperseded security updates , approve them.
6. resort on superseded column invert column , select other group of not superseded updates.
7. repeat step #2 thru #6 critical updates using critical updates view.
8. repeat step #2 thru #6 remainder of updates using updates view.
after known needed updates have been installed, return updates view
and filter on approval=unapproved , status=installed/notapplicable
sort on superseded flag, select updates superseded, , decline them.
(you not need these updates anymore.)
