7.6.04 (multi-tenancy) Change Management and Service CI's...

2012-05-17 Thread Rick Phillips

Hello all,

This is a 7.6.04 sp2 (multi-tenancy) question regarding Change 
Management and required Service CI's.  We noticed that if the Change 
Location Company value (on the CRQ) doesn't match the Service CI, 
Company value, the Service wasn't available to the user.  However, if 
the Service CI, Company value is NULL, the Service is available.  The 
question is:  what is the  impact of having the Service CI record with a 
NULL Company value (i.e., elsewhere in the lifecycle of the CI)?


Thanks,

Rick

Have you tried keeping the company field on the service ci  populated with the 
previous value and creating a "used by" people-organization relationship to the 
new company? That should make the service available   By creating multiple 
used-by relationships, you can control who sees the services...

Terry,

Thanks for the reply.  Your suggestion works in INC, but oddly not in CHG.

...and.. That is surprising? Lol

Not sure how I could expand upon this other than looking at converting the 
change service menu to follow the same constructs as the incident one...

It might be your only alternative

yep, that may be plan A.  I was checking out NULL values in the Service 
CI as plan B.

2012-05-17 Thread Terry Bootsma
Rick.one other item that I have done in the past is change the service menu 
so that it is a tiered menu using the tier 1, 2, and 3 of the actual service ci 
itself.  That way it gives you a nice tiered menu of services vs. a large menu 
that makes service selection difficult.
