Re: Passing variables between Applications and Tasks

2009-06-08 Thread Savant, don...@dts
According to Support, there is no way to do it with CAI Event configuration 
alone, you'd have to customize the application.  That being said, there is an 
RFE "Pending Review" to enhance the TMS for this functionality: RFE SW00329718. 
 Since the work around is simply to use the [View] parent button, the effort to 
customize hardly seems worth it.  Hopefully Engineering feels differently.

Our primary user community works only on Incidents or Tasks. Since we
completely bypass the Work Order system, we wanted to figure out a way to
pass the variables from Work Order to Task but haven=92t had any luck.



Even I was successful in passing variables between Tasks but couldn't figur=
e
out a way to fetch information from the parent system (Work Orders/ Change)=
,
finally gave up since I had many other critical issues on my plate.



As far as my research goes, this would basically require understanding
the CAI system and how each Event works.



Please share your experience when you are done. Good Luck.



Thanks

Passing variables between Applications and Tasks

2009-06-05 Thread Savant, don...@dts
Does anyone know if it's possible to pass variable data from ITSM applications 
(e.g. Change mgmt or Work Orders) to Task and/or Task Groups?  I've 
successfully configured variables to pass from one task to another and from one 
task group to another but everything I've read appears to be limited within the 
Task mgmt System(TMS) itself.  I haven't seen anything which shows how to pass 
data from the parent to the task or task group.  Thanks in advance.
