We did exactly the same thing using group ID - I think your additional syntax 
is interfering ... ie take out semi-colons and colons and just leave wild cards 
around the group ID. 

Just use $GROUPS$ LIKE %10042% and I think you'll find it will work fine.

Re: Namesake Views

2014-01-23 Thread Lee Cullom
BTW - After reading Mark Brittain's email just now, I thought you Remedy peeps 
would find this ironic and interesting.  I was talking to a ServiceNow customer 
(who switched from Remedy) yesterday.  They were complaining about how they 
added custom fields and workflow (touching the dreaded OOB script includes).  
Now, they are stuck on the Berlin release, but have Dublin in a sandbox 
environment and really want to move to it.

Then, I saw a full demonstration of their product with customizations.  Since 
SNOW OOB only has Assigned Group and Assignee, they had to hard code additional 
tiers of support groups (to be fair, they probably didn't have to, but more on 
that later) into the  Incient Management application (among dozens of other 
things).

Next, you had to scroll up and down the page to see an Incident.

Then, there were TWO rows of tabs for the additional fields... I could go on 
and on, but let me just say this.  It reminded me exactly of Help Desk 
4.0/5.0/6.0... that didn't meet the needs of the customer (large IT 
department)... got themselves stuck with dozens of junior ITSM consultants 
(there are more of these in the SNOW world)... and can't upgrade.

The VERY thing that they complained about which led them to switch to 
ServiceNow.

Lesson?  BMC loses these customers because they're not nice to them... present 
a huge upgrade SOW (courtesy of professional services typically)... provide 
mediocre support (SNOW has support staff that remind me of the great Pleasanton 
crew that Remedy used to have).  They're really helpful and basically just 
great at googling answers... but they're friendly and responsive.

It's fascinating to watch history repeat itself.  Also, a little maddening.

Now, ServiceNow does have one real advantage these days.  They are a PaaS 
compared to Remedy (not BMC Remedyforce).  So, one additional lesson for the 
ages - WHY didn't BMC open up an app exchange (like salesforce) for Remedy and 
bring on the people on this list to develop (and profit from) the ARSystem 
community?

On a positive note, I am very thankful that these kinds of gaps open up 
opportunities for businesses like us!  So, Thank You BMC?  Still, it just 
doesn't feel right.

HI All,

The move from 6.3 (custom)  to 7.6  ITSM always seems to have more surprises 
than I care to sustain. Anyway, I have a monitoring tool that queries the 
hpd_help_desk view. The monitoring tool is granted permission to the view using 
the command grant select on aradmin.hpd_help_desk to monitoringtool;

Before today I did not know about these namesake views. Last night I added a 
field to the HPD:HelpD Desk and this query broke. Apparently there is a script 
that runs, deletes rather than updates the view and builds a new view. The 
result is any grants assigned to the view are wiped out.  After that monitoring 
tool could not query the view and the DatabaseError: ORA-00942: table or view 
does not exist was being returned.

One solution would be to grant the permission the monitoring tool anytime the 
view is rebuilt. Not my favorite approach. Has anyone run into this and come up 
with a better solution?

Re: Using $GROUPS$ OR $GROUPIDS$ to hide fields for certain Groupid

2014-01-23 Thread Charlie Lotridge
Remedyart, you had it nearly right, but you need to use $GROUPIDS$ instead
of $GROUPS$ (and replace the colon with a semicolon at the end), so:

*$GROUPIDS$ LIKE %;10042;%*

should do the trick.

$GROUPS$ returns the *names* of the groups that the current user belongs
to, but without any separating syntax.  This makes it unreliable if you
have any groups with that have names which are substrings of other group
names.  For example, if you have a group call Operators and another
called Special Operators, there's no way (using $GROUPS$) to tell if a
user is in *just* the Operators group, since $GROUPS$ LIKE %Operators%
will also return true if the user is only in the Special Operators group.

This is why they introduced the newer $GROUPIDS$ keyword, which *does*
include separating syntax (semicolons).  In fact, more recently*** they
went so far as to ensure the that there are semicolons at the both the
beginning and end of the string, so that a comparison such as $GROUPIDS$
LIKE %;group id;% will always work.

[*** My vague recollection is that this wasn't always so.  I think there
didn't used to be starting or ending semicolons, forcing you to use much
more painful syntax: ($GROUPIDS$ LIKE 10042;%) OR ($GROUPIDS$
LIKE %;10042;%)
OR ($GROUPIDS$ LIKE %;10042)]

Group Type of 'None' does not make a group a permission group. It becomes
only a notification type of a group. So yes that was your problem.

Re: Namesake Views

2014-01-23 Thread Shelston, Patrick
This is what we do.

We just re-create the AR view into a custom view and manage it manually from 
that point forward.  For example, HPD_HELP_DESK would have a stable version 
called REPORTING__HPD_HELP_DESK (just be careful you don't exceed the maximum 
length of view names in your DB).

It's very easy to setup if you just copy/paste the view SQL and rename the name 
in the statement.

I had wanted to investigate triggers to regrant on CREATE VIEW statements, but 
never got around to it.

Re: Using $GROUPS$ OR $GROUPIDS$ to hide fields for certain Groupid

2014-01-23 Thread Mueller, Doug
OK, you have gotten answers to the what keyword and what syntax to make this
work correctly.

My question to you is what are you really trying to do...

Is it that anyone who has this particular group in their group list regardless 
of
what other groups they are in, you want this to hide?

So, if my group list is

Administrator; 10024

You do not want me to see the field?

What are you trying to accomplish?  Have you created this group ONLY to do an
exclusion like this regardless of other rights/permissions I have?


In general, I don't like workflow like this.  If you don't want someone to have
access to something, use permissions to control whether they have access.  That 
is
the only safe, secure, system enforced means to protect something.  If it is 
hidden,
they still can access it, just they cannot see it on the UI.  So, if those 
fields
in question had data in it, that means I can get that data using the API or Web
Services or a Report or the like because I have access.  You have just hidden 
the
fields from me on the UI.  You have still given me access.  If I have no access,
the fields don't exist to me so there is no hiding issue.

I am also concerned about that first topic.  If I am in 20 groups and I have 
access
to these fields and all is well.  I add one more group so I am now in 21 and you
are removing access?  So, getting MORE permissions is trying to give me less?  
That
can quickly become confusing in the system.


I am not saying to do or not to do this workflow.  It is your choice of course.

But, I do want to point out what the ramifications of what you are choosing to
do are so you can decide whether or not it is really meeting your goals.

Re: Remedy App Service changing workflow (AL, Filters, Fields, Forms)

2014-01-23 Thread Mueller, Doug
There are many pieces of automatically created system workflow based on how you
are configuring your applications.

Approvals -- Create filters
SLM -- Creates filters
SyncUI -- Creates forms and workflow
Process Designer -- Creates fields and workflow
CMDB -- Creates forms, fields, and workflow  (but probably not with this user)

There are likely others, these are just ones that come to mind quickly.

Take a look at the definitions.  You should see that they fit patterns and tie 
back
to some functionality of some application/subsystem.

These are pieces of workflow that are automatically generated based on you
configuring or adding rules or otherwise defining how you want the applications 
to
work.  To get the result you are asking for, the system creates definitions to
help.


I hope this helps,

Doug Mueller

Subject: Remedy App Service changing workflow (AL, Filters, Fields, Forms)

Hi everyone,

anyone ever heard of the Remedy Application Service changing workflow - Active 
Links, Filters, Form Modifications (that are not part of a UI Sync)?  We have a 
prod system showing hundreds of workflow pieces being modified by Remedy 
Application Service - and we can think of no reason for why/how this could be 
happening.

Any suggestions to fix this problem would be very much appreciated.

-Marcia

Re: Why do service requests require a Login ID?

2014-01-23 Thread Jason Miller
Thanks for validating.

Guest user is the only way I can think of where a person would be logged in
an not associated with their Login ID (assuming it isn't a shared account
that is use for authentication).  I guess it is possible that
Authentication Unregistered Users would allow a person to login without
having a Login ID (User record) but without Login ID there is no way to
associate the person to their People record.

I am trying to figure out what patchsk is referring to: Hmm upon further
review it seems like you actually do not need a login to use SRM. All you
need is just a person record.

Maybe that wasn't a technical statement but a licensing one?

 I haven't looked into using SRM without a Login ID.  How does it work if
 you don't have a Login ID but do have a People record?  If the person is
 not logged in with their account how is a person associated with their
 People record?  Does it prompt them to enter their people ID or search for
 their People record by name?

  a few minutes passed
 So I did a quick test.  I enabled allow guest users and was presented with
 a warning that Logged in user not recognized and was sent back to the
 landing console.  I created a People record for a test user but without the
 Login name I am not sure how to associated with the guest login.

 And there is no license control at the system level, only paper licenses.
 In that case no idea why would a loginID be required for SR creation from
 Incident.
