# Configure Return Codes in a Patch My PC Cloud Deployment
*Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud*
The **Return Codes** tool of the Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud deployment wizard allows you to configure *Return Codes* for a deployment (a *Return Code* is a numerical code an app typically logs and reports once it has completed running its installer).
You can manage Return Codes from within the properties of a:
* Deployment
* Custom App
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**
See the [Configuration ](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/custom-apps/create-a-custom-app/custom-apps-configuration-tab)section of [Create a Custom App](https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/custom-apps/create-a-custom-app) for details on how to configure Return Codes within the properties of a Custom App.
Also, macOS apps also do not support Return Codes.
{% endhint %}
To manage Return Codes for a Deployment:
1. Click the **Return Codes** tool.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**
The number beside the **Return Codes** tool shows the number of return codes currently configured for the app being deployed.
{% endhint %}
The default Return Codes defined for the app are shown, plus any defined for the app if this is a Custom App.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**
If a vendor supplies a list of Return Codes for their app, we include it. If they don’t, we automatically populate the list of Return Codes with industry-standard codes.
{% endhint %}
3. If you do not want to add a new Return Code, proceed to Step 5.
4. To add a new Return Code for this deployment, enter the numerical value in the **Return Code** field, select its meaning from the **Code type** dropdown, then click **Add**.
The new Return Code is added to the list.
5. If you do not want to edit a Return Code, go to Step 9.
6. To edit a Return Code, click the pencil icon beside it.
7. Make any required changes.
8. Click the green tick to save your changes.
The **Code type** field is updated.
9. To delete a Return Code, click the red trash can beside the relevant code.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**
You cannot delete either the default Return Codes for a deployment or any that have been added as part of the Custom App’s configuration. However, you can edit them.
If you add a Return Code to a deployment, you will be able to edit or delete it from the deployment if required.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="danger" %}
**Important**
If the Return Codes you define in a deployment differ/conflict with those defined for a Custom App, the Return Codes defined on the deployment take precedence.
{% endhint %}
The code is deleted from the list.
