Re: ticket direct URLs and login sessions
Hi Peter, Few things :) In the system generated link: http://MID_TIER:8080/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServlet?form=NTE%3aNotifier&server=AR_SERVER&eid=NTS00772848 the NTS00772848 stand for entry id in default request id or in the case of NTE:Notifier the Notification ID field id 1 (NTS just a prefix in the field), so &eid= stands for bring record number(entry id) NTS00772848 On the HPD:Help Desk form the Incident ID is not Entry ID which has field ID 1, so you can't use &eid= and have to use &qual= qualification instead with encoded qualification string where you refer the field by name or by db id. You got it almost right, but looks like you have ' and a space that should be encoded in your link. Try this http://MID_TIER:8080/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServlet?form=HPD:Help+Desk&server=AR_SERVER&qual=%27Incident%20ID*%2B%27%3D%22INC_NUMBER%22 Or this by field ID: http://MID_TIER:8080/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServlet?form=HPD:Help+Desk&server=AR_SERVER&qual=%27100161%27%3D%22INC_NUMBER%22 Also, check that MID_TIER server name is the same in the link and in the path when your user logged in. Could be host name in one and FQDN in the other.

We disabled the default link at the beginning of all messages and created our own.

Normal and as expected. · If the user (not already logged into the mid-tier) uses the direct link, logs in, accesses the ticket AND THEN (without logging out) clicks on another direct link from a different email notification (or the same), they are taken directly to that ticket without any required authentication. Normal and as expected. · If the user had already been logged into the mid-tier, the direct link in the notification still requires authentication instead of taking them directly in. Odd o If the user declines the authentication (closes the browser tab/window) and goes back to their original, already logged in session, that session has now been logged out and they have to re-authenticate (Session is invalid or has timed out. Please reload page to log in again. (ARERR 9201)). Annoying Now, I’ve done some more testing. I re-enabled the ‘Add URL’ on the notification filter that has the form of: http://MID_TIER:8080/arsys//servlet/ViewFormServlet?form=NTE%3aNotifier&server=AR_SERVER&eid=NTS00772848 (ß I don’t know what the NTS number relates to) The new notifications (in Dev) have both URL types. With this being the case, I can’t make it fail as before. I’ve also re-removed the ‘Add URL’ from the filter and it still won’t fail in that environment though our production environment is still acting odd. This feels like something has gotten cached that works for the filter URL but not for my direct one. Anyone have any idea what’s going on here?

Re: Return Function
Hi Rajkiran, The error you see is just little misleading. It checks for the managers login id as you had mentioned. The workflow expectation is that you would enter managers name manually and if it missing the managers login id the filter would tell you so, but you actually populating managers name, so no active link that populates the managers login id on enter will run on the client side to prefill it for you before the filter check. Just add a filter that would do it for you (fill the managers login id grabbing it from People form) before the check :) Hope this helps Nik From: rajkiran Alle To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 11:27 AM Subject: Return Function Hi, I am creating a escalation to copy LDAP data to People form, In that process i am getting following error as i am copying ManagerName to People form without MangerLoginID.

Hi Sonali, Try going through Global Catalog Server instead of DC :) From: Sonali Gupta To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2012 4:42 PM Subject: Pulling data from multiple domains/subdomain ** Hi Arslist, I am looking for suggestions and ideas about implementing multiple LDAP origins in one single vendor form. My company has LDAP integration in place to pull groups for one domain, example, DomainA using vendor form, LDAP query etc. Now we want to pull groups, firewall groups, posix, netgroup etc from different sources which are on different domains and sub domains, such as DomainB or DomainA1, DomainA2 etc. One option is to use, of-course, vendor form. This option, with current implementation, forces to create multiple vendor forms for each LDAP origin. Now, we have a large number of domains and sub-domains, both current and future. Which means we will have a large number of vendor forms to maintain. This also means, every time a domain or sub-domain is created and needs to be added as a source for LDAP, we will have to create a vendor form manually. Though this is achievable it is not desirable. Instead of creating vendor form for each LDAP origin, is there a way to dynamically change the "Table Name" in Form Properties/Vendor Information/Table Name based on some other form data? -- Thank you, Sonali Gupta _ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" and have been for 20 years_ ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years"

Re: Incident Management Console/Incident Ownership Process
We didn't like this as well, when migrated to ITSM 7.6 little over a year ago. I did: Added assignment rule for Incident Owner to be Help Desk. Could be multiple based on your location and org structure. We have one central help desk that answear all calls and forward/escalate incidents, so this gives access to the ticket even when ticket not assigned to them any more. (you may already got this step done) Updated workflow that prepares logic for EXTERNAL command on HPD:Incident Management Console taking out ownership portion. Since Help Desk already set as an owner for each incident there is no need for them to see any of those and they can search for specific incident if there is a need to update it.

On point 2., this was changed somewhere between ITSM 7.0 and 7.6.x to where it is impossible to easily filter out the Ownership-only records. It is HUGE problem for us in our 7.6.04.01 system upgraded from 7.0.03.009. Our faculty/staff customers are organized into over a dozen Support Organizations and Departments under a Customer Company, with distributed support units configured as their desktop support (students are supported by the central helpdesk). Assignment Rules set Ownership to the local support for all Incidents for faculty/staff, even if the Incident is assigned to a central support entity for action, since in most cases the customer expects their local distributed support to be aware of their problem. In the 7.0 Incident Console there was a toggle between Assigned and Ownership that kept Ownership-only tickets hidden until you wanted to look at them; switching back and forth was easy. No longer; this was removed by someone without a clue when the 7.6 Incident Consoles were re-designed; when we webexed with BMC to show them the problem, they were stunned to see over a hundred ownership-only requests in the helpdesk consoles, where there were less than a dozen actual assigned, open tickets. The OOTB filters are useless for controlling this, and the custom filters are barely usable as you have to write VERY long and complex Boolean queries (that drive the mid-tier nuts if they are in error) and must be added by each individual on their support account. We have had an issue open on this since before we went live but have gotten nowhere with it. BMC wants to say that it is as designed; I say they broke the functionality present in 7.0 and I want it back. If it is "as designed," it is lousy design with blinders on. We are close to the point where I will be forced to customize the consoles to restore the toggle to hide Ownership-only records.

All other support groups are set as Tier 1 and whenever they create a case and assign it to another Tier 1 group, the originating group becomes the incident owner. We are looking for 1 of 2 solutions. 1. We would prefer that instead of the originating group becoming the incident owner, the assigned group would become the incident owner. I'm not sure if this is possible or not. If so, is there a place that this can be configured or a certain tier that can be used (ie, going from a Tier 3 group to a Tier 2 group). 2.

I assumed HPD:Help Desk should create the request, but maybe it’s HPD:IncidentInterfaceCreate which should create the Request? I say this because I have some records stuck in IncidentInterfaceCreate. I thought once this form processed a record Remedy deleted it. Under SRMS Integration Fields, everything is blank except for the SRMS Registry Instance ID. It appears to be the correct value & I’m not passing it, so Remedy must be doing something here.
