This tracks with my observations too. You get assignment notification, but no escalation to manager workflow notification. SLA will fire if an ticket is aging, if you have SLA's.

By itself, Service Desk (Incident and Problem Management) in no way "replaces" the old Help Desk application; far too many functions were completely dropped and exist exclusively in other 7.x applications now. Some of us are trying to come up with the $$$ for the other apps, but a lot of folks appear to be opting to stick with Help Desk 6.0 on an ARS 7 platform because it is a more complete application OOTB.

What I find mind boggling is that escalations are not built into the Incident/Problem management application. It appears that one would have to purchase the SLM application to make escalations functional on the Incident/Problem application. Does this mean we have to create customized escalations to use escalations with the OOTB Service Desk 7 application? Am I missing something here? mjd __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___ __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___ ____________________________________________________________________________________ 8:00? 8:25? 8:40?
