A new PowerShell script was posted to the Technet Script Gallery that allows you to delay the invocation of an automatic approval, or customize the targeting of the automatic approval. For those who have previously asked (at least one quite recently, as I recall): How do I (auto)approve updates for Group 'B' after they've been (auto)approved for Group 'A' (the pilot/test group) ... this may be an option for you.
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/WSUS-DELAY-AUTO-APPROVALS-ba0ea840
- approve updates after a customable delay
- approve updates for only one computer target
- exclude "Service pack" classification (hard coded)
- have a log file
- make one HTML report per execution
- put execution error in logfile, if at least script have rights to create and write in the specidied log file.
- recommended to be executed in task scheduler
