My guess is that BMC is saying it's "by design" because for us, our orphaned tasks remain open. So they must have at least fixed them in a later patch so that they are Closed.

Dee Sent: Thursday, May 22, 2008 11:04 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Chnage Management email notification issue We had a similar issue, that being when you create a Change and you add Task(s), however, at the last minute you decided NOT to save the Change record ALL the Task(s) associcated with the Change are set to Status = Closed / Status Reason = Canceled. This results in Orphan Records. According to Remedy this is by design. I'm not exactly sure why Orphan records would be by design, but that is what I am told. If you click on the "Open" button to open the Change from the Orphan Task it says something like "Requester is not available" - this is not clear. The Change record does not exist, but all your Task(s) do. As well take note if you delete your Change record it does not warn you about the Task(s), the result will be your Change record will be delete, but your Task(s) will still exist - orphan records.
