LJ, I have worked with loading incidents directly on the incident form via AIE and bypassing the IncidentInterface_create form. This was for an ITSM 7.0 go-live and moving data from ITSM 6 to ITSM 7 on a different server (a long time ago).
Some of the things I had to take into consideration when doing this directly: - Any hidden fields that need to be populated for workflow tied to active links were populated. (Person ID comes to mind!) - Check the foundation data and make sure you use valid values when creating the incident - Check the hidden flag fields (create service request flag comes to mind) and make sure that the value you use is valid. - Ensure data integrity for relationships. (may not apply to what your doing) - Ensure that you populate all fields for the status/stage the incident is going to be created in. The incident interface create helps you to pre-populate values from a template if a template id is provided. It also validates the location info, op and prod cats, assignments etc. I take it you are still going via the API? Hope this helps.
