Veeral, I know you said "not by importing / manipulating database from the backend".. but... Escalations scream batch processing to me... So... How about this...
Use the command line runmacro to get an ARX file of the current record and then use arimportcmd to import the record to the second form. This will "copy" the record exactly as it is and will guarantee the 'Request ID' values are not mucked with. ( You could even do this via filters on Submit/Modify and keep the records synced through out their entire life cycles.) Just write a small shell script on your ARS server that you pass in the Entry ID and maybe the two form names. (That way you could do this for as many forms as you wanted to without rewriting the script.) Add a filter (or maybe two) to the "source form" and you should be in business. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap....

** Hello all, I have 2 forms which are exactly identical (same ids for all the fields). I would like to push records from form A to form B via escaltion. Is it possible to retain the same value for the Request ID field on form B as that of Form A? and if so , can you please tell me how this can be done? This has to be done through workflow only and not by importing / manipulating database from the backend. Environment: ARS 6.3 OS Windows Server 2003 MS SQL Server 2000 Can any of you please help with some suggestions which could help me proceed.
