Set up to allow web submissions of Service Requests to active directory (i.e. Move User, Deactivate Account, etc). Auto-generates Remedy Change Requests and Tasks.

Unable to Report From Mid Tier ARERR 9246
Hi, We see the below trying to run reports from Mid Tier. The BMC documentation and everything else we've researched indicates that we need to verify the report we are trying to run is still available in the Remedy Reports form. Our reports are definitely in the Report form. Has anyone out there found a way around this problem? We did much diligence in trying to correct this issue before posting here.

Re: Dropping BMC Support
Another thing to consider is you will not be able to get license keys generated online should you need them.

At my current employer, we were looking into purchasing ITSM a few years ago. Basically, BMC let us have it for paying back-maintenance from an old company. So basically what happened is that Company E went sold off Company C and went bankrupt. Company P merged with Company C and then both were purchased by Company S. When we decided to purchase ITSM, our BMC sales rep found out that Company E had licensed ITSM in the past, and as a result we could get it for merely paying back maintenance for a for a few years, which was a whole lot cheaper than buying it new. However, my point is that the reverse could also hold true. If you drop support, even if your company gets bought out or something else happens that can be traced back to your current company, you risk being told to pay back maintenance if you want to ever restore it. I would advise against dropping support unless your company is in absolute dire straits.
