Thanks Jason, It seems easier to mantain! -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Barnhill, Jason (Jason) Sent: lunes, 24 de abril de 2006 17:45 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Do Not Allow Anyone To Change Status from New/Assigned/WIP to Closed
Hi Alvaro, I have done this before... Hide field 7 and make a new Status field. Make it a character field with a menu and set it to display type of 'Drop down list'. Make a table with 2 fields to hold entries for allowed State transitions and point the menu to it, ie. 1 field is 'current status' and the other field is 'allowable status', where the menu shows values where 'current status' = $7$... That was you can have 0 to many possible values in the menu based on the current status. Then have a filter fire to set field '7' to the value in the new menu Status field. That should get you what you want. Hope it helps.

If you have defined 10 status but for example from "new" you can only change to "assigned", is it possible if the actual status is "new" to display only the "assigned" status?

We then have an active link that runs on our Helpdesk form that checks the validity. We only allow experts to change a ticket to resolved, but not to closed. We have escalation that changes a ticket to a status of closed. Its is one form and one Active link if you would like me to send it to you. We are running ARS 6.3, MidTier 6.3, We have a homegrown Helpdesk form, but we are told it is very similar to Remedy's Helpdesk.
