Re: How to get the Subject line when sending an email that performs a submit action?
Hello John, Thank you for your opinions. I take into account the problems you had. To get the Subject line, I just do a 'Set field' action when a record is created on 'AR System Email Messages' that saves the Incident number, so later from Brigde form I do a 'Set field' to recover the 'Subject line' from the MAX Email id that has the mentioned Incident number . So I will not do any push fields from AR System email Messages form ---> BridgeForm nor BridgeForm --> AR System email Messages. By the moment I do a push field action From BrigdeForm to HPD:Help Desk. In case there were problems I would change it for an escalation.

Re: How to get the Subject line when sending an email that performs a submit action?
This is what I would do. 1. A Staging Form to store all Incoming Emails. 2. A filter on "AR System Email Messages" that will push the Incoming email to the above staging form. 3. Filter(s) on the staging form to parse the number (using functions STRSTR, LTRIM, SUBSTR) from the subject line. 4. Filter that will push the incoming email message to the corresponding work log based on the above parsed number.

Re: How to get the Subject line when sending an email that performs a submit action?
Sergio, One recommendation for your Push Fields action to Bridge form workflow: Use an Escalation to push fields from the AR System email Messages form ---> BridgeForm form and not a filter. I have setup and maintained incoming email workflow for a Large-Scale implementation of Remedy 6.3 (The email engine has not changed since then) and we found that having a filter push fields from the AR System email Messages form ---> BridgeForm form can shutdown the entire Remedy Application service if there is an error with the filter processing. Also the more intricate you get in your parsing workflow that extracts information from the Email the more variables of errors will occur. I also recommend using another escalation to push fields from the BridgeForm --> HPD:HelpDesk. When we used a filter we did not discover this until the first few days of production.

Maybe someone else can chime in and elaborate on how they are updating tickets via email?? I know when tickets are created via email, they are staged on the HPD:IndicentInterface_Create form. but I don't know if this holds true for Modify actions -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of Sergio Tomillero Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 9:20 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: How to get the Subject line when sending an email that performs a submit action?

Re: How to get the Subject line when sending an email that performs a submit action?
I guess I was confused since the subject line of the email would be "this is about incident INC03173", I assumed that the incident already exists and that your users would just be updating the ticket.

Re: How to get the Subject line when sending an email that performs a submit action?
Sergio, Are your users sending emails to update an INC ticket which already exists? Is so, your action should be "Modify".. Look at the following pages of the Administering BMC Remedy Email Engine (ARS7.1) guide. 164-165 (Action labels Submit, Query, Modify, User-Defined) 131-140 (Sending a modify instruction to the EE) 140-147 (Using workflow to modify requests) 147-150 (Searching for an entry to modify - advanced) HTH, Marcelo -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of Sergio Tomillero Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 3:56 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: How to get the Subject line when sending an email that performs a submit action?
