Subject: Sys Notifications - Adding Fields

All,

I have two hot issues and both are being denied support by my BMC partner 
because they call them customizations.  Can someone please help me out?  We are 
desperate here...  I will open them in two mails as they are not directly 
related.

This first issue is with Sys Notifications.  We are trying to add the phone 
number from the HPD_Help_Desk form of the incident customer to the sys 
notifications emails.  For some strange reason this field is not one of the 
options.

I found the following instructions in a link 
(http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg48716.html) and followed 
them.  It did add the OPTION for phone number to the SYS Notification but 
inside the NTE:SHR:TranslateNotificationMessage filter I found there was no 
mapping for phone number so when I tried to use $Phone Number$ as instructed, 
Remedy would put quotes around it and then literally replace it with $Phone 
Number$!!  So I know quoted values worked as string replace but not lookup...

I then tried to map that form to HPD_Help_Desk instead of CURRENT TRANSACTION 
(at least the set field action) but when I did that, the emails stopped working.

We got some more instructions from BMC Support before they stopped taking this 
issue which listed more to do (included below)


As per logs and webex session we understand that You have created a new record 
on SYS:Form Field Selection for a new filed Phone Number (User Phone Number). 
This allows you to select the #Phone Number# filed on SYS:Notification Messages 
form. You have added this filed on SYS:Notification Messages form for Incident 
Assignment Notifications. From the notification audit log, it is observed that 
the filed value is not getting updated with the proper value. i.e. in 
Notification message the User's Phone is #Phone Number# and not updated with 
the actual phone number.

With these out of the box forms and workflows you can create Menu Items but to 
populate the values dynamically, you need to customize the existing forms and 
workflows.

Below are the reasons and actions required to achieve this customization

1) The Notification filed values are captured from three forms NTE:SYS-NT 
Process Control, NTE:SYS-Group NT Control and NTE:SYS-Individual NT Control

2) The User Phone Number (Requester Phone Number) filed is not created on the 
above three out of the box forms (You need to create one filed Requester Phone 
Number)

3) The filed values in the NTE:SYS-NT Process Control form are updated by a 
workflow Filter HPD:INC:NotificationGenerator_899_PNPC'!(You need to modify the 
push field action to push Phone Number from HPD:Help Desk
4) These values are translated into SYS:Notification Messages form by the 
filter NTE:SHR:TranslateNotificationMessageINC3_102. Modify this filter with 
additional set filed action before Exit Guide to translate the #Phone Number# 
filed

These steps were also followed to no availe.  We are STILL not getting the 
#Phone Number# replaced with the phone number on the incident.  HELP!!

Thanks,

Scott
