Thanks Christopher - I wasn't aware of the advantages of customizing the product list under documentation but will certainly do so now. However, I do have my product list for all my servers and applications customized in the Support section for submission of tickets, but whenever I do submit a ticket they always come back and ask me what my environment is...so, are they just not paying attention to that or ?? Does anyone know? I always have to duplicate what I have already set up in the product list.
Just my rag for the day - sorry. :-) Candace ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of strauss Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2007 8:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Tips for dealing with Remedy's new support site I have found that it is worth the initial effort to go ahead and define your products list, since it saves an awful lot of time later when you avoid scrolling through pages of BMC products to find yours. It is even more useful to define your custom product list under documentation, a separate process, after which you get regular email updates with direct links to the pdf files as new release notes, technical bulletins, and other documents are released. IMHO, that is by far the best feature of the new supportweb.

This forces one to select from the attached menu. The work-around for this is to select from the field to the right and select "All Products". This appears to enable the Products field. At this point, you can a product name and select from the menu and only those items matching %product% will appear in the Product* menu.
