How can I create ticktes for Change on status closed
** Hi everybody, I need create tickets for changes on status "closed". We need use the Data Import. I'm doing that but I'm getting this error on arerror log Mar 30 16:38:24 2015 390603 : : You must provide the Actual Start Date and Actual End Date when completing or closing a change. (ARERR 1440220) I sent those fields on the .csv file but I don't know why is it?? How can I solve this?? Regards Pamela _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_
Re: How can I create ticktes for Change on status closed
Pamela - the answer can be a bit tricky and problematic. The Change application has several rules around Actual Start and End Dates and Scheduled Start and End Dates. You may need to provide multiple different values depending on when the Change was originally 'submitted' since Start dates cannot exist before that date or before the date in the Earliest Start Date field. So in addition to providing 'adequate' Start/End Dates you also need to make sure that specific other hidden fields are set correctly. I had to do this a lot in a previous job and I found the easiest way for me to do so was to export some GOOD records that were already set to Closed and analyze the other fields that needed to be set a specific way. Then determine one or multiple dates that will work given the finicky nature of Change date rules and update your csv accordingly. Hope this helps Candace On Tue, Mar 31, 2015 at 9:27 AM, Pamela Morales pmora...@grupocontext.com wrote: ** Hi everybody, I need create tickets for changes on status closed.

Unique Index in 8.1.2
Hi, I'm in BMC ITSM 8.1.2, MS SQL. - in Dev Studio 8.1.2 Indexing is available for some Overlay Forms, but New button is grey. For Other Overlays it is not even available. - in Atrium Class Manager I have created unique index for BaseElement form - Serial Number, tested and still can modify records with duplicate SN. Question: - is it possible to verify unique index works? (looks like it is sort of Pending - has small red arrow on the Form icon.) remember, in old times in Admin Tool, when creating unique index, i used to get some errors showing duplicate records IDs, and it was not possible to create it until removing those records. How long does it take to create unique index in Class manager? Is it anything else must be done? my respect igor ivanov EITSD AM Remedy Developer igoriva...@usa.net ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years
C-API Question of SetForm action
Hi All, I have tried all I can find and I have no other Ideas. I am using the C-API Ver: 7.6.4 though DotNet (C#) VS2013. I have no issues when it comes to reading the objects through the API using any of the get methods . _server.GetForm(Name), pulls the BMC.ARSystem.ARForm with no issues But when I try to Update the form or any other workflow objects for that matter after I modify a property on or no modifications to see if it will update, I get an Error. Error (303): Form does not exist on server;Invalid object or object name for overlay mode set Or An unhandled exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in BMC.arnettoc.dll I could use some in-site on this issue or possible alternatives. Example Code Below: /// /// Update the Diary Field with the action taking place /// String sUser = Demo; String Name = MyForm:Test; BMC.ARSystem.Server _server = new BMC.ARSystem.Server(); BMC.ARSystem.ARForm oArForm = _server.GetForm( name ); BMC.ARSystem.DiaryEntry diaryEntry = new DiaryEntry(); diaryEntry.Text = Diary Entry to show up in the Change Log after altered via an API.; diaryEntry.Time = DateTime.Now; diaryEntry.User = sUser; oArForm.ChangeDiary.Add( diaryEntry ); //With or without this line it errors _server.SetForm( oArForm ); // == Dies Here Please, Assist if possible.

Re: C-API Question of SetForm action
Hi, I would personally be very careful while modifying objects through a wrapper API such as the DotNet API... In ny case this has to do with the fact that you might work in Best Practice Mode. This means that you can only modify custom objects or objects that has already been overlaid. Or you work in Base mode whereas Custom objects does not even exist. For the object you try to modify you must check the objects AR_SMOPROP_OVERLAY_PROPERTY. You can then sett your AR_SMOPROP_OVERLAY_GROUP using the ARSetSessionConfiguration() API call. Good luck! Note that admin changes such as these will require the server to recache which takes time and consume memory. It depends much on the servers cache mode setting. In any event doing admin changes is not something you should do on a regular basis... Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://www.rrr.se (ARSList MVP 2011) Ask the Remedy Licensing Experts (Best R.O.I.

Re: Unique Index in 8.1.2
To the best of my knowledge, there was never a problem with any of the prior versions as with the current versions when creating a unique index if the criteria for a unique index are already met. That field must have a value with no duplicates (beware NULL is a value so cannot be repeated). I'm assuming you might have already checked for duplicates among non null values. Have you checked for duplicate NULL values? Also for further clarity (just in case you are missing something critical) could you line up the steps you took in order to create that unique index - including steps taking to create an overlay in the event you are creating this index on a form that is an OTB form considering you make a mention of overlays in your posting..
