Re: Question about incident scripts

Jose,

 The best way to provide technical instructions to service desk is through
RKM. If you have a well managed Product and operational categorization in
your system, the associated RKM articles will show after the incident is
created and they can take advantage of that. Using RKM helps you have
central well managed,most accurate and updated information. Service desk
can download or copy the information for offline reference.

My intention is to add some kind of technical instruction to the script.
Thus the service desk staff can follow it before escalating the incident to
second layer.
Don't know if it's the best option, but it's the one i'm exploring right
now.

Thanks again!

Jose,
This won't solve your dilemma with the initiator script but I've noticed a
trend of users moving away from this functionality and going more towards
using a KMS whether it be RKM or some other knowledge management tool. The
attachment and even the script you're talking about is really just a
knowledge artifact and should be tracked as such. When you maintain it in
the initiator script area, it just adds another layer of administration
overhead for whoever is managing the knowledge base. Again, sorry this
doesn't answer your question but it's an alternative.

Currently to start an initiator script they click on the menu, and the
sript selector opens. They can select an script and edit the text. But they
can't see the attachments.

Scripts are for Support Personnel not end users. If your end users are actually 
using the Incident form to create their own Incidents you would need to give 
them permissions that they should not have to see a script.

**Hi listers,


I have, what I think, a very silly question. How can users access to the 
attachments of an script?


When you create an incident script you can attach some troubleshooting 
documentation. My intention was to allow users that read the script to download 
the docs. But seems impossible. So, What's the intention of these attachments?


We are using ITSM 7.6.0 with ARS 7.5.0.
