Is this correct?
Hi Alli am posting this on behalf of a friend.They are having problems with time display on Change. The server is located in Germany, but when users in the UK use the system the Start Date and Proposed Start Date show the server time which is 1 hour ahead.So the call can theoretically be closed before it even begins. They apparently logged a call with BMC but were told that is as designed and to change this would be considered an enhancement! I cannot believe displaying the correct time for a user can be an enhancement. The list search is not working very well for me at the moment so I cannot find a solution at the moment, but if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. ARS 8.1ITSM 8.1 not patched.OracleWindows. Many thanks.

I forgot to mention that it could perhaps be renamed too. From the description of your environment, it is unlikely that these may be the issues. No experienced Remedy developer would delete or rename an already deployed form - but accidents can happen.. That’s a unforgivable crime in our world when it happens :-) Maybe you could use Ben Cherny's Meta-Update tool to perform a comparison with what you have on your server, to what's usually available OTB as he has a spreadsheet with all OTB forms documented. He was just discussing that on another thread "ITSM 7.6.03 OTB forms that begin with CTM:Ppl% or CTM:PPL%" that I had started... Not everything missing from the difference you see may mean a problem as some of the differences could be because of the components you have installed, opposed to those that were installed when that spreadsheet was generated. Also the patch you are on would also make a difference.. In the end, flushing the cache should resolve the problem..

Re: Problem Importing Definitions (7.6.04SP1)
I have had a similar issue, slightly different from yours. The only way I could get it to work was to delete the forms from the target server. This might not be feasible for you if you have data in those forms. You could test with deleting a single form and then re-importing your definitions.

(The definition files were exported from a 7.6.04SP1 system.) If I export a deployable application or a fairly large set of forms and related workflow (say 40 forms), I am able to import the definitions into a NEWLY installed AR 7.6.04SP1 system with no problems. But, if I try to import this same file into an UPGRADED 7.6.04SP1 system, the import fails. There are no errors and the import appears to terminate normally, but nothing is actually imported. If I decrease the number of objects to 4 or 5 forms then it will import ok. Again, notice that it works flawlessly with a NEWLY installed AR 7.6 but only fails when trying to import to any of our UPGRADED 7.6 systems. All these upgraded systems appear to function and perform properly from a user perspective. While running the import against one of the upgraded 7.6 systems, I enabled API and SQL logging, but there are no API or ORA errors.

Is it a static file or is the file modified over time? What database? What version? Possible Answers Hopefully the file resides on the server?.. If so AIE would be an easy tool to use to pump the file into a resident table within the ARS created for that.. If the file is on the client you may have some limitations.. You could view the file using the view field, and there are a few things you may be able to do on viewing the file.. Something you may have to play around with.. Running AIE jobs from a client if this file is on every user client is not really a feasible solution.. If you are using MS-SQL as the underlying database, MS-SQL had DTS (data transformation services) that could read csv files to update database tables. That could be another option – Having said that, DTS was taken away from the post 7.x versions of MS-SQL, but I think Microsoft replaced it with some other tool that does similar stuff..

Re: Email Notifcation
Another approach. Maybe slightly long winded and may even not be practical. Depends on how badly you need this solution. Create a form. Every time a ticket is assigned to a group, create an entry in this form. when sending out the email, you can they query this form to see how many current tickets are assigned to a group, multiply the number of tickets by 20 and use the Business time functions to get a date and time when the ticket will be attended to. You will of course have to make sure that you update the form with the status of the ticket. Run a weekly escalation to delete closed tickets. Like i said a bit long winded, but should work.

I am trying to create workflow that takes data from one form (button press or via escalation) and creates a record on another form. On submit of the second form, I am pushing the 'Request ID' to a third form to trigger another series of events. The first filter that does push fields includes `! at the end of the name. However, the entire process fails because it is attempting to push a null value (Request ID) from the second form to a required field on the third form. Isn't that the point of - `! - ? So you can force the push fields in phase 1, create the record and execute additional workflow immediately thereafter? We're on ARS 7.5 Patch 007, Windows 2003 and SQL 2005. Thanks!

Re: Kintetic Request vs BMC Remedy SRM vs newScale
In my opinion and this is purely personal, I would go with Kinetic Request. NewScale offers a nice web interface but the actual programming to do anything is tedious to say the least( at least it was a couple of years ago when I took their course). The catalog aspect of NewScale is also handled in KR and probably a bit better. Why not ask for a demo from both and see what you think? I find changes in KR much easier than in NewScale. If you ever need to change anything after the base install you will appreciate the ease of Kinetic Request. Get hold of John Sundberg at Kinetic Request I am sure he will be more than happy to convince you!! thanks shafqat Shafqat Ayaz --- On Thu, 7/22/10, Rabi Tripathi wrote: From: Rabi Tripathi Subject: Kintetic Request vs BMC Remedy SRM vs newScale To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Date: Thursday, July 22, 2010, 2:18 PM If anybody has opinions about the first two, please respond.

I have heard positive opinions about it. Can anybody shed any light on how its different from the other two? I know newScale has been integrated with Remedy ITSM, but it appears newScale is also marketed as a complete, standalone solution for managing requests.

Re: Qualification EXTERNAL() Issue - Returns Nothing
Koray if you are entering the qualification as 'Task ID' = "TSK01" in an external qual it will not work, you need to put the double quotes within two double quotes so the 'TSK01' needs to be something like " " "TSK01" " " . I have put spaces to show you the double quotes, you need to remove the spaces. make your char field visible and then have a look at what the qualification looks like and you will what is wrong. you can enter the qual as you have shown in the EXTERNAL qualification field and just right click on the table and refresh it, it will show the correct data, but if you do a Set Fields then you have to triple the double quotes.

Resend:Groups
Hi Alli have a very basic question in ITSM.group notifications, do they use the group id or the group name? we have an issue where one of my colleagues wants to put the group names the same as group id for example if the group id is 1234 he has named the groups 1234 as well, although the Long Group Name is set properly for example Company->Org->Group Name. This is the name that shows up in the Assigned Group field. The other problem is that he has named two groups the same for different companies.for example Company1->Org->Finance and Company2->Org->Finance.We are not using Multi-tenancy at the moment and it does not matter if people from one company can see incidents raised by the second company. My question is: what is the accepted wisdom for naming groups in ITSM ( we are using v7.1) and will this group naming scheme work for notifications.

Re: Flashboards issue in client, not web
One of the reasons you might be having this problem is that you are not using the same server name via the client as is configured in the Mid-Tier. For Flashboards the two names have to be the same. If you do not know what name the Mid-Tier is using, just create a char field and then do a Set Fields of the flashboard field to this field, this will give you the name that Flashboards expects you to connect with. This especially happens if you are connecting with load balanced servers. It would help to know what error message you get if any. Generally if there is a problem with the server names you will get a message something like Server[Servername] is not configured in the Server List. thanks shafqat --- On Fri, 8/14/09, Daniel Thomas wrote: From: Daniel Thomas Subject: Re: Flashboards issue in client, not web To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Date: Friday, August 14, 2009, 2:45 PM ** Lyle, Hi, We are havin the same issue here.

Re: user requests to receive notifications only from 12am-6am (UNCLASSIFIED)
Off the cuffI would create a field and set the the current time in that field, some fancy work with strings and find out the time portion within the field if the time sets between 12am and 6pm then run a filter to notify this person.I have not tried this but I think it should work and let you get out of the situation of writing 60 escalations.

While I thought this will would be quick and easy, it is becoming a bit more than I wanted. What I have so far is 60 escalations created with having each minute specified on the hour for each escalation. Basically, for each escalation, all the Weekdays are checked and Hour of Day selected from 12am-6am and Time selected for 00, 01, 02, or 03, etc. I really do not want 60 escalations running for this request. Is there a way to run 1 escalation or even a filter within a specific timeframe (between 12am-6am everyday)? It's crucial for the user to receive the notification when his ticket is created right away, since SLA requires it. Otherwise, I could just run one escalation checking for that user's ticket(s) once every hour. Thanks and I hope I made sense.

Repost:Strange Error
Hi All We are getting a strange error only on some machines running Windows Vista. The error is as follows. ARERR[326]Required field cannot be set to a NULL value-SRM:WorkInfo:Work Info Type The issue is that it is occurring only on some machines and does not seem to be related to the User profile. The users can log in from a Windows XP machine and submit a ticket fine, but not from Vista machines. Have deleted all .arf and .arv files from the home directory, checked all permissions on directories on the machines, all are in order. checked the field on all the relevant forms, all are fine, the permissions are fine. If anyone has encountered this error or know what could be causing this, please help! Many thanks as usual in advance for any help/hints.

Strange Error
Hi All We are experiencing a strange error. It is only happening with some 4 or 5 machines currently. The error is as follows ARERR[326]Required field cannot be reset to a NULL value-SRM:WorkInfo:WorkInfoType. The problem as I said before is that it is occurring on only some machines, the only thing different i have been able to find out is that these machines are running Windows Vista as opposed to Windows XP, where this error is not happening. I can log in as the Users who are getting these error from another machine and do not get the error. I have checked all the forms and work flow permissions etc and they are all fine. The only thing is according to the users these errors started after we upgraded to ITSM patch 9. Anyone seen this error before? or can point me in the correct direction? Much appreciated. just to let you know the steps we have gone through. checked the local permissions, all directories are write able, deleted all arf and arv files, checked all permissions for users and workflow in the Remedy system. The two things pending I am trying to find out from the users(they happen to be in Israel), are, what is the value of the Work Info Type field when the Incident is being submitted and what version is the User Tool. ARS 7.01 Oracle 10.2 ITSM 7.1 patch 9 ( recently upgraded) Many thanks as usual for any help.

Re: Help on Business Hours computation
of the top of my head how about using an Active Link instead of a filter. that should use the client time rather than server time. shafqat --- On Mon, 4/27/09, Kaye Bernales wrote: > From: Kaye Bernales > Subject: Help on Business Hours computation > To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG > Date: Monday, April 27, 2009, 2:15 AM > Hi List, > > How are business hours computed?

Re: Number Validation
Hi you could look at the keyword $DIGIT$. You can define this in the pattern field on the Attributes tab of the field properties. if you need further help drop me a line shafqat --- On Mon, 4/27/09, nsachin wrote: > From: nsachin > Subject: Number Validation > To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG > Date: Monday, April 27, 2009, 5:22 AM > Hello Listers, > > I have one character field.This field should contain > 'characters and then > followed by numbers'.For example the field should > contain the value of > 'PRQ1234'.I am extracting the string after PRQ in a > temporary field.So,the > temporary field will have value if 1234 in this case.But, > if this temporary > field contains a value other than numbers,then the user > should get a error > message. > > How should i check if this temporary field contains only > numbers after > alphabets? > > Please help me on this. > > :confused: > -- > View this message in context: > http://n2.nabble.com/Number-Validation-tp2721765p2721765.html > Sent from the ARS (Action Request System) mailing list > archive at Nabble.com. > > ___ > UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org > Platinum Sponsor:rmisoluti...@verizon.net ARSlist: > "Where the Answers Are" ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor:rmisoluti...@verizon.net ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
