Turns out, it's a fairly simple fix...

For the Operational "Tier 1+" field, I only had to modifiy the one AL
Leonard mentioned  (CHG:CRQ:ServiceCatTier1List_100_R0-Dialog) by adding
CHG:Change Dialogs to the form list.

For the Product Name+ field, little more involved, but still not too bad...

Check the AL's that start with, "CHG:CRQ:ProdName(2)Search_0..."

I just added the form "CHG:Change Dialogs" to the forms list (with the below
exception) and it worked.

For the one AL, "CHG:CRQ:ProdName(2)Search_025_R5->", it wouldn't work when
I tried to share it (like you said, the field ID's were different). So, I
copied it to  a new AL ("save as") and replaced the form, so that the only
form listed was CHG:Change Dialogs. To fix the field ID problems, I modified
the Set-Fields qual to:

(((('Company' = $Location Company$) OR ('Company' = "- Global -")) AND
($Location Company$ != $NULL$)) OR ($Location Company$ = " ")) AND
(('Product Categorization Tier 1' = $z1D Char01$) OR ($z1D Char01$ = " "))
AND (('Product Categorization Tier 2' = $z1D Char02$) OR ($z1D Char02$ = "
")) AND (('Product Categorization Tier 3' = $z1D Char03$) OR ($z1D Char03$ =
" ")) AND ('Status-PDC' = "Enabled") AND ('Status-PDA' = "Enabled") AND
('Product ID' = $z1D Char05$) AND ('Change Management Selection' = "Yes")

So, unless BMC Support provides a different resolution, it seems to work for
the three use cases (no-match, single-match, multi-match). And it's easy
enough to roll-back in any event.

Thanks again!
