Caveats mentioned
- For new PTEs only immediate or update window; next minor or major is only for updates to already installed PTEs
Documented features match
- No documented item matched. Not documented
- Product documentation: Managing Apps, checked 2026-10-02. You can choose to install the PTE immediately, during the environment's next update window, or during the environment's next minor or major update. Note: Also describes choosing the Sync Mode for the scheduled install.
Docs checked on 2026-10-02: the match is against Microsoft's what's new pages for the wave as they were on that date. Microsoft keeps filling the documentation, so "no documented item" can go stale.
