Steve, You need to think about how you are classifying slightly different. You select the product in the Product Categorization section (This is the What\Noun section) - Tier 1 = Software Tier 2 = Application Tier 3 = Third Party (if you follow OOTB) or Standard Operating Environment (your Example) Product Name = Remedy
Then you also select an Operational Categorization (This is the Action\verb Section) - Tier 1 = Add Tier 2 = New Account or Tier 1 = Install Tier 2 = Software or Tier 1 = Change Tier 2 = User Permissions See, no matter what the action, the thing (Remedy application) is still the same. The combination of the two sets defines the full reason for the ticket. This is very handy because now you can report on say ALL Remedy issues or All New Account issues.
