Running modules manually is pretty nifty but it would be great if you could select multiple modules for TOEM to run one after the other instead of having to click on each and wait for one to complete before the next is started.

Show log / result of module in browser
Having the option to download a client log is nice but oftentimes you just want to see what the last module's output was or if it worked at all, so could we have an option to show the log directly in the browser?
TIA

Re-download external files before running module or based on condition
Having the ability to link to external files is useful if apps get updated and one wants to download the new app. Currently, one has to manually re-download external files or have a script on the server itself that replaces the external files in the respective folder which is not a great solution either. It would be great thus if TOEM modules could be configured to either re-download the files before running a module (especially for modules that are mainly run manually) and/or to have a condition trigger a re-download of external files (e.g. an update checker module triggering a re-download if a new file is detected).

Run module on next checkin
For computers that are currently offline, it would be great if there was an option to run a module on their next checkin, i.e. without having to assign them to a group and then assign a module to a policy and then assign it to that group.
Alternatively, it would be useful if policies could be added to individual computers without having to create a group first.
TIA

Trigger re-download of external files with script module?
I have a command module that contains external files. I wish to re-download those files if they change on the server so I always have the latest version. I have a PS script that performs the necessary checks but how do I then get the command module to redownload the files? I know about conditions and I can use the script to trigger another module but I don't see any option for this action.

RE: Policy: Run a module if process X is not running?
Okay, I figured it out by reading the manual for another, unrelated module. For those who struggle with the same problem:
Create a script module with the content
if (! (Get-Process X)) { Exit -1 }
where "X" is the name of the process. You can use * as a wildcard, e.g. X* will match any process whose name starts with "X". Set the "Success Codes" value to "-1" and toggle "Use As Condition". Save the module with some name you can remember, e.g. "Check if X is running"
Now, when creating a policy, you can use this module as a condition in the "Conditions" tab and it will only run if the process is not running.

Policy: Run a module if process X is not running?
I'm new to TOEM but I like it a lot so far, but I struggle with some details.
I have created a module to start a certain application update. I wanted to create a policy that uses a Condition to check if the application in question is currently running and run the update module if it's not. I can use powershell with
Get-Process X*
in order to find the process (which will output nothing if the process is not found and otherwise will output the process information). But how can I tell TOEM to run the policy if this condition script module gives no output?
TIA
