We made it mandatory for the first level of both operational and product categorisation
After that if there is a lower menu for the selected upper value then we force them to enter the lower menu value. The result is that some selections only require the choice of O1 and P1, some choices O1 and O2 and some O1, O2 and O3; similarly for the product cats.

In terms of reporting I always argue that Resolution Categorisation provides more granular details as of course at this point the issue has been diagnosed correctly. From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Legters Sent: 29 September 2008 17:06 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Optional Categorization for Incident Management 7 ** We've been live on ITSM 7 for about a month, and I'm realizing we have an Issue. Since the Categorizations on the Classification tab are optional, the vast majority of folks creating new incidents are opting out of making choices here. Probably two-thirds of the Incidents logged last week have no categorization. This makes for very bad reporting. I had assumed the OTB workflow would cause these to be required at some point, but I'm discovering that's not the case. So, I'm curious - how have other folks dealt with this issue?
