Great I understand. So for my support staffs request I would have to create
an xml file that only displays his groups tickets using an Escalation. But
to set this up so others can see there own data (bigger picture) I would
have to create a form available via Mid-Tier with a drop down box of all the
different groups and they would have to select what groups tickets they
would like to see. Then with workflow create the xml and post it. Sounds
pretty easy as long as I can get the xml to look correct.
By the way, I tried to use the Data Visualization, but found out that the
Data Visualization Server needs to be configured on Mid-Tier to get it to
work. Mid-Tier 6.3 doesn't have that field in the available in the
config_general.jsp. I'm guessing that it's in 7.x version.

The Klink doesn't work on ServletExec which my Mid-Tier is setup on. This is
the same problem I ran into getting the Kinetic survey lite to work. I have
ServletExec running my Mid-Tier on the same server as the arsystem
application. I was told that both ServletExec and Tomcat can co-exist on the
same server but the arsystem Java requirements for arserver 6.3 is 1.4 and
Tomcat is a minimum of 1.5 so it had a conflict. :-/ I'm still interested in
the Klink product so I'll probably just setup a virtual webserver to handle
this instead.

Mahalo for all your suggestions.
