That might be an error in the so-called "integration" between SLM and
your version of Incident Mgmt, or in how your service targets are
defined versus your customers.  We are creating our Incidents through
Kinetic Request, which uses HPD:IncidentInterface_Create to generate
requests, and as long as the customer selected for the Incident is one
for whom a service target is active (in our case, the UNT Customer
company), the service targets are attaching and the SLM Status is
correct.  It is normal for Incidents created with a support staff
customer account (from one of the over 20 operational companies) to have
"No Service Target Assigned" since no service targets are active for
those companies.

 

As a side note, since the Kinetic request generated incidents are set to
Reported Source = Web, they are left at Response = No and the Incident
Response service target remains active. Using one of several other
reported sources, including the default of Phone (I think - we changed
it), will cause a new incident to be created as already Responded, and
that service target as met on Submit. We changed the default to Other,
which has the same effect as Web.

Subject: SLM Status not changing when using HPD:IncidentInterface_Create

 

** 

Vital Stats:

AR Server 7.1 patch 001 for Solaris

IM 7.03

SLM 7.1

 

We have a small custom integrations.  Some filters fire on the AR System
Email Messages and push data to a staging form.  This form then formats
the data and uses the HPD:IncidentInterface_Create to create the
Incident.

 

This all works well.  It's simple, fast and reliable.  However, now
we've added SLM in the mix.  When the Incident is created the Service
Targets attach to the Incident correctly but for some reason the SLM
Status field never gets updated.  It is stuck at "No Service Target
Assigned".

 

Is there something special you have to do to get the SLM module to work
correctly when using HPD:IncidentInterface_Create?  I haven't found any
documentation dealing with this...
