  I just want to generate a patch report which contains more details like what the patch is for?

  That information is not even stored in the WSUS database, so it will be near impossible to produce a WSUS report that gives that information. Click on the More Info link and read the KB article to find out what a patch is for.

  My client not satisfied with that report i shared to him (Detailed report both excel and Pdf), he need more what the patch will do on the server.

  ...and that's how Patch Administrators earn their pay. Research! :-)

  Is there any way to get it manually with all the details, without searching in MS website what it is for.

  Nope.
