Howard,

There is nothing currently that would let you do that within the framework of 
the application as it comes out of the box.

Even the Audit function available with the ARS Server post version 6.3, will 
not really do what you want. What you require calls for customization.

Since you say you want to validate foundation data change, you would probably 
need to build another front-end and a duplicate respository to every piece of 
foundation data you want to validate before updating. The data you want to 
update could be set up as a ticket in this duplicate repository, which could be 
reviewed by some sort of a approval team, and given the green flag commited to 
the actual foundation form that it belongs to.

The repository containing suggested updates to the foundation data could then 
hold the audit information as it would contain information of what that record 
was updated to over time..

Subject: Looking for ways to validate or lock down and then audit foundation 
data changes

** 
Good morning, afternoon and evening all,

Here is a question posed to BMC with no response so far.  As we know all of the 
ITSM 7 foundation data has been placed in a number of different forms with no 
way of placing this data some type of lock down or good audit trail (other then 
the last one who modified the record).

So my question to the greatest and most intelligent group of Remedy programmers 
that exists in this world or any world (if you believe that there is Remedy in 
other worlds), is “How to audit and validate changes to all foundation data and 
where is all of the data stored?”

That is if an audit of all changes to all foundation data is requested, how 
could anyone provide that information, without modifying the system?

I was asked the question and had some programming ideas, but the customer is 
trying to stay out of the box.


As always thanks,

,
