What determines whether an application gets a green check or a yellow warning sign in the deployment summary screen when using an MDT/UDI task sequence?

I am trying to get Office 2010 to install using a UDI task sequence, and it IS installing, but it has a yellow exclamation point next to it at the summary screen after the task sequence completes, as does another app I am trying to install.

The apps that use an .MSI are fine, and get the green check, but the two apps that use .exe for their installers get the yellow warning sign.  I assume this has to do with exit codes or detection rules, but I am very new to SCCM (using 2012 and MDT 2012 Update 1), so I need some help.

Thank you! 

EDIT: This probably has to do with the fact that SuccessOrFailureCode being blank.  I have been pouring over .vbs scripts and logs, but they all seem to indicate that my application installs just fine, with an exit code of 0. Where does this screen get the SuccessOrFailureCode?

I'm experiencing the same issue with MDT 2012 Update 1 RTW.  I have verified the installed appliction exit with a 0 return code.  Has anyone found a resolution to this?

I saw the same issue with applications that didn't have MSI product code detection rules. Looks like UDI relies on this detection logic. Can you create an MSI product code detection rule for the application?

I have some updated info on this problem.

I am trying to install Symantec Endpoint Protection with a custom wrapped .EXE file, and I have created detection rules for the install.

According to AppEnforce.log, SEP is installing and returning an Exit code of '1', and that is being handled with my custom return code handling, which I've defined as a 'success'.  However, the deployment summary is still showing a yellow exclamation point next to the SEP install, and the SuccessOrFailureCode is blank.

Why isn't the SuccessOrFailureCode equal to '1'?  Where is the disconnect between the AppEnforce.log and the deployment summary.

I am in contact with some Microsoft guys because of those yellow exclamation marks. I'll update this thread when I've got feedback.

Hi! Did you get feedback? I'm having the same issue with one of my task sequences.
Apps are installed and install-logs are OK, but OSDResults displays PackageID and yellow exclamation marks instead of Package Name and green ticks.
