Kathy, Take the new "Remedy guy" by the hand and add a Read-Only user called CRReporter. Give CRReporter read access to all the fields in the form on which you wish to report. You can build your entire CR output with this kind of access to the dev server. For the workflow portion, you're going to have to convince management that you need access. Maybe help him set you up as a subadmin with access to that one form. Then send him here. We won't burn him. We promise. Everybody has to learn somewhere, sometime. If he can't get BMC Remedy training, having a dev server and an ARSlist account is the next best thing. One other question. When this report is completed and moved to the production server, what account will be used to run the report? HTH,

If it will make the new person feel better, ensure that there's a good DB backup before you log in, and take a .def file backup right after. We know you probably won't need them, but the way to counter his irrationality is by calming him. If that doesn't work, I wouldn't even deal with him further - go over his head until you get someone to answer the first question I posed. Wonder why the previous person walked out...

We have a new person that took over the Remedy and he knows nothing about Remedy and does not want anyone touching the system. I am a regular support user on production. It's not really a separation of duties. The person who did this job before - walked out. In a message dated 4/28/2008 1:07:00 P.M.

I'm betting this isn't the case, because if it were, then I could only assume that you would have someone you would know of who has access to the development server.

Perhaps if you asked this other person to show you how it can be done in the absence of admin access, that should clear it up one way or another.

I don't believe that I can build the algorithms, and integrate Remedy with Crystal without this access. Is there some way this can be done - its a development server. I am a Remedy Developer - never experienced not having access to dev. ________________________________ Need a new ride?
