Is there a way to create a script to upgrade Windows 10 release 1803 or 1809 to later versions like 1903, 2004, or 21H1?
We have about 100 computers that are running Windows 10 release 1803 and 1809. I need to upgrade them and I do not see a way to accomplish this with the KACE SMA version 11.1.263

To update 1809 and later you can use the Windows Feature Update-feature of the SMA.
A video with a how to can be found here: https://support.quest.com/kb/318219/
This should also work for 1803. For older (and if needed also 1803) you can use this way: https://support.quest.com/kb/255380/
It uses the install media to run the feature update "manually".
Since you need to jump some steps in between a better way would be using the SDA to do the following:
1. capture USMT (User State Migration Tool, which means all settings and configs are captured from a machine)
2. deploy the latest image or managed install
3. restore USMT
