Carey,

Maybe I should have included a ;) with my email.  Maybe even a *<:0)

I understand that David already confirmed Copy to New is being looked at.

My note was concerning including the documentation. David noted that at the 
moment it's an issue because of browser limitation.  Just planting a seed for 
future.  If it can't be included in MidTier then hopefully BMC/Remedy will 
provide us with a pdf file that we can provide a link to like back in the old 
days.

I have done research when making RFE's and the ones that I have requested the 
support folks fully agree.  Haven't seen a one of them implemented yet.  
Someday maybe.

Dave

Dave,

You (and others) might be wise to review some past threads on "RFE"s
before you submit them. If you do your research then you might have a
better expectation of what will likely happen.

In this case, David Easter already confirmed that an RFE for "Copy to
New on the Mid-tier" is already "under consideration for a future
release of AR System". So submitting a "Duplicate RFE" may have no
value to you and will likely cost BMC to process it. ( I know of no
weighting/voting mechanism in the BMC RFE process if the same, or
similar, ideas are submitted by multiple customers. It is in fact very
difficult to even know what RFEs others have already submitted at this
time. ) Though I do wonder how long this RFE has already been in the
system.

   Circa Dec  2 2009
   Of special interest in this thread would be this doc:
   http://www.bmc.com/support/review-policies
    --> "Request for Enhancement (RFE) process for distributed systems
products (pdf)"
   http://media.cms.bmc.com/documents/ESM_RFE_Process.pdf

) Enhancement request....
   Circa Jun 19 2009

) RFE - How can these be submitted???
   Circa Jun  5 2008

) BMC Support RFE Document
   Circa Apr 22 2008

There may be other threads of interest too.


Good luck.
