We did the same here with the Work Order and the Incident forms.

<Begin Rant>
You can't imagine the amount of moaning, groaning, teeth gnashing from people 
going from a very, extremely customized 6.0 HD to 7.6.04 before I unhid a LOT 
of stuff.  Why on earth would the Login ID be hidden.  There is so much the 
people who developed/designed this version of Remedy ITSM did not know about 
how people work.

The way to update a simple telephone number is insane! 1000 steps to change 4 
characters!  Did not make the people on the phones taking over 100 calls a day 
happy!

... and..... fields on the tab make it more intuitive when it comes to querying 
via the QBE window.

We unhid the fields here and put them on a tab.  Benefit is the tab displays 
far faster than opening a dialog, and it's one less popup/window for the user 
to deal with.  Plus, for a user new to the system, fields located on a tab are 
far more intuitive than finding them via a button buried in the left hand 
navigation.  In our case we made some tiers required so from a usability 
perspective it didn't make sense to have the user navigate through options in 
the left hand navigation to find required fields on an additional dialog.

Don't forget you'll also want to consider any categorization field 
changes/requirements for impact to the process flow bar views as well.

Hi Ahmed,

The fields are already there.  You would just need to unhide them.  Also, I 
would create a separate tab for Categorization, that way you can have all the 
Categorizations on that 1 tab.

I fought it here and told them that they will be clicking on a tab to get to 
the categorization, that is what they are doing now, except there is a pop-up 
window.  Not much difference but the same number of clicks.

Hello All!

I have a requirement to move the product categorization to the main incident 
screen, rite now it is a pop up that comes up when clicking on 'Categorization'.

I am curious if anyone else has done this yet? Should i be using a new set up 
fields or should i just import the existing ones?

Any ideas?
