Unable to update 'Licenses Available' on System Software form
My asset team needs to be able to update the 'Licenses Available' field on the System Software form within ITSM 7.1.03 patch 6. I've updated the CMDB class attribute and gave permission to the Asset Admin and Asset User roles but that hasn't worked at all. I tried opening up the form in Remedy Admin tool but was unable to change permissions on that field. Does anyone know how to make this field read/write ? Currently we can only set a value when creating a new asset but then it's read-only. Thanks!

To be fair, just because the AR Server mid-tier is a POS doesn't mean current web browsers aren't ready or capable of handling a well designed ticketing system.

We had them try to use the 7.1 mid-tier when we migrated to 7.x last year, and they gave it a full thumbs down on everything except speed. The helpdesk manager (and we in the admin shop) are fairly dependent on the rapid export of ad-hoc reported data to .csv for manipulation in Excel, and I don't see the web interface being adequate for that anytime soon. There will have to be some revolutionary changes in both web browsers and the mid-tier before abandoning the User Tool is anything but a pipe dream.

Workarounds: a) Modify the Group name on the Group Form: Instead of the Group ID, this field should be populated with the Group name. A filter can be written on the CTM:Support Group form, which modifies the Group form when any new group is created or modified. Short comings of this approach: Company1-> Org1-> Group1 and Company1->Org2->Group1 cannot exist togather. Group Name should be unique on Group form. b) If the Group Notification (sent to the Assignment Group) is to be fired from, say, HPD:HelpDesk, then create a new zTmp_GroupName field. On Submit and Modify of Assignment Group field, create a filter that reads the GroupID from CTM:SYS Access Permission form. You can query this form by specifying Company->Org->Group to get Group form's Group ID. In the Notify action, specify this zTmp field, instead of Assignment Group field. Short comings of this approach: The administrator has to be aware of such zTmp fields created for Group Notification purpose.

Re: Problem with Group Notification Workflow
George, I tried your suggestion with no luck. Now the message just appears with the Support Group ID in the Address. I also tried using the InstanceId from the CTM:Support Group form but that didn't work either. I'm going to try and dig around the Incident Management filters to see what it is passing in since that is working on our server. Thanks!

From the Online Manual: Note: AR System resolves the contents of the User Name field by first checking for a matching request in the User form. If found, the notification is sent to that user. If not found, the server checks for a matching request in the Group form. If the name corresponds to a group name, the notification is sent to all members of that group. If no User or Group definition is found, the contents of the User Name field are used as is and treated as a guest user of the system. This all made pretty good sense before 7.0...now the "Group Name" that it's referring to here is going to be the GROUPID (eg: 100089) and not the actual name as you and I would LIKE it to be. I would suggest that you try sending your email to the Assigned Group ID instead of the name.
