Our Service Desk had the basic requirements of count as FCR if Incident is resolved in the received support group, do not count as FCR if the incident leaves (reassigned) from the receiving support group (i.e. group created in - as we require assigned support group for create).
This was easily achieved with one custom field to record FCR and filter workflow. This approach takes out the human element as it is unseen to the SD associate.

Every single call that the service desk takes tends to get checked FCR, whether they resolve it when they answer the phone or it remains opened and gets passed around 6 groups over the next month. Of course training the help desk staff is a requirement, but how many organizations take the time to do that?

If the ticket was forwarded to another group then workflow set the field to NULL and disabled it. Of course this would be difficult to manage if the HelpDesk was very large.

FCR measurement! We have a solution that sounds similar to what Pavan came up with... It required us to join several views. And, this is the ITSM 7.X way, it would be different for custom Remedy shops, but the principles are the same. We leverage a little known capability (and typically an un-configured foundation element in Remedy) - Support Group Role. Remember that? This helps us keep the metric external (basically objective, but for a full definition see our blog at http://www.northcraftanalytics.com/blog - "What makes a good ITSM metric?" Basically, it works like this: - CTM Support Group - Find the Support Group Role, make sure this is configured (It only requires a modify all) - HPD: Help Desk - Incident Number, Description, etc... - Assignment log - Check to see if the Incident left the Individual where the incident was initiated - Business Time - To ensure that you're talking about business minutes for those times where an Incident was submitted at 4:58 PM and closing time is at 5. - DST - We decided to go ahead and calculate this one outside of Remedy due to the flux. This particular set of joins in our cube also allows us to find bottlenecks in the assignment process... and metrics like "Average time for 2nd Level to Respond" These principles can also be leveraged for other process areas that have similar bottleneck potential.
