Right click action to show software updates needed on a device

I could really use a right-click function on a device that shows the software updates that are needed on that device.

      The Remote Software Center has similar functionality as the local Software Center application but can be run remotely and at scale on devices or device collections. You can view and install deployed applications and programs, available software updates, and view and run deployed task sequences. It has similar functionality to the local Configuration Manager control panel for checking the target machine against deployed compliance policies.

      To locate the Remote Software Center:

      1. In your Configuration Manager console, right-click on a device or device collection.

      2. Click Right Click Tools > Client Tools > Remote Software Center.

      The Remote Software Center - Software Updates tab shows software updates available for your devices. You can select individual updates to install or choose to install all missing updates. If multiple devices are selected when opening the Remote Software Center, the updates will start on all selected devices.
