Hi -

We are currently working toward upgrading from AR System 8.1.02 to 9.1.03/(or 
9.1.04).  Currently our lab server is running 9.1.03.  We are running into an 
issue with the Notify action in Filters.

The Notify Delivery Mechanism allows a few values:

1: Alert
2: Email
3: User Profile Default
99: Cross-Reference

For cross reference, you can then pass an integer value to define the delivery 
mechanism at runtime:

0: No delivery
1: Alert
2: Email
3: User Profile Default

By running some filter logging we have narrowed down the types of delivery 
mechanisms that succeed/fail.  It has been our experience with 9.1 that using:


*         User Profile Default (3) or Cross-Reference, with User Profile 
Default (99/dynamic 3) SUCCEEDS.

*         Email (2) or Cross-Reference, with Email  (99/dynamic 2) works FAILS.

What I mean by succeeds or fails is this:

When it succeeds, the email goes out, and all variables in the subject and text 
get expanded.  So suppose I send a notification for a ticket being opened User 
Profile Default, and the subject has
$Ticket #$ has been opened at $Create Date/Time$
The email's subject will contain:
"PT-123456 - has been opened at - 1/1/2018 09:04:36 AM"

When it fails, the email goes out, and all variables in the subject and text DO 
NOT get expanded.  So suppose I send the same notification for a ticket being 
opened, using Email delivery mechanism, and the subject has
$Ticket #$ has been opened at $Create Date/Time$
The email's subject will contain:
"  - has been opened at -  "

Has anyone else experienced this behavior.  If so, were you able to fix it, and 
how?  Note: changing the notify mechanism is not an option, as we use email in 
many filters.  All of this works just fine for us in Remedy 8.1.02

Thanks!

Mike Galat
