Our rule is that if the menu is sequential, we won't modify it, but if the 
numbering is "custom" we will add odd valued entries (so they won't be affected 
by upgrades).  We have modified that particular menu without issue.
You can use a tool like Abydos to track what workflow uses a particular field.

Marcelo,

I always dread these types of requests.  I don't think any workflow is 
dependent on reported source field but as a general practice I try to avoid 
modifying ITSM objects as much as I can.  I handle it by creating a dummy field 
and hiding the original.

I have been asked to modify and remove some of the selection attributes for the 
field "Reported Source" in Incident Management (ITSM 7.0.03).  I would like to 
know if there is any adverse effect in removing selection values.
For example: Delete option "Fax". Rename option "Systems Management" to System 
Generated. Etc.

Also, going forward, what is the best way to find out if changing a OOB field 
or field value will affect other OOB functionality (i.e. notifications, 
approvals, SLAs, etc)?


Thanks,
Marcelo
