Oops -- sorry - I did not see this post until after I sent my last one.
7.7 sounds marvelous (egg on my face) BTW -- I have been in Remedy since (I think the number was 1.02) I seem to have heard the line before: -- so much better in the next version (but that is what I heard the last version) So much better in next - suggests current is weak (if you ask me). Side note: I remember an ITSM 5.5 presentation given in Chicago - where it was promised that this is the last time your ITSM data will not be automatically converted to the next version on upgrade. At the time -- the popular saying was "I will eat my hat if ....." That saying was used in that presentation regarding ITSM. I witnessed the saying -- never the act :( Wondering -- does 7.7 do the "no downtime upgrade" as was mentioned at WWRUG? I am not in the beta - so I don't know. Would be awesome though. (OK - sorry for the rants -- but this is an area I TOTALLY CARE ABOUT - and have STRONG OPINIONS) -John On Oct 28, 2011, at 10:59 AM, Matt Laurenceau wrote: ** SRM has branding capabilities, that were demo'ed this week by Laurent during the 7.7 Beta weekly call. Should you want to be part of the 7.7 Beta Program, ping May Bakken at customer_progr...@bmc.com I have also seen rebrands of previous versions of SRM (but things are way easier/faster/better with 7.7).

We plan to use the SRM (“ServiceRequestConsole/enduser”) as the ‘front door’ for all our tickets. We’d like to be able to do some tweaks on it, to ‘re-brand’ it to look more like our other web pages. This would involve such things as logo, colors, banner, & footer. We’ve asked around and been told the only thing that can be changed is the logo-graphic (top-left corner). I just find it difficult to believe that other companies aren’t doing more in the way of custom ‘skins’ for the SRM user-interface. Does anyone have any suggestions they can offer regarding how we might accomplish this?
