Tim and Shawn,

We did not move any tickets over (thankfully!).  This makes that part of the 
problem a little easier to troubleshoot.

I've run logs and am comparing them now.  We are on ITSM SP2 and ARS SP3.

Thank you for the info.  I'm going to run this by BMC since I already have my 
logs.

Claire

There was a similar issue when you searched by customer. BMC deemed that a bug 
and provided a fix for it. The defect for that issue was SW00412940. There may 
be a similar fix for your issue.

The gist of it was, the customer field gave varying results depending on if you 
entered the name (based on how you have your customer lookup configured) and 
pressed return or if you just entered the name and didn't press enter. Pressing 
return populated hidden fields with data that may or may not be relevant for 
the particular search you are performing. For example, the customer changed 
locations. You don't care that they moved from site a to site b (which was part 
of the data being populated). You just want to see that customer's tickets. In 
our case, it was as Shawn describes. We were searching a mix of tickets that 
were created new in 7.6.04 and some that were migrated in from 5.5.

In your case, selecting from the menu, is probably doing a similar data call 
and set. Again, as Shawn pointed out, depending on where and how the ticket was 
created, the data being called might be different.

BTW, we're on 7.6.04 SP2 and I do not have the issue you describe. Are you up 
to SP2?

Claire,

Could some of them be Incidents that you migrated from your old system, or some 
created by SRM and some manually?  I've not seen this behavior before, but I 
would try to identify at least one example that does show up at all times and 
one example that doesn't, and do a comparison via a select statement against 
HPD_Help_Desk of both records to try to find a pattern.

Thanks,

Subject: ITSM 7.6.04 - Assigned Group Search on INC form.

**
When searching for tickets in the HPD:Help Desk form using the Assigned Group*+ 
field, the values returned are not consistent.   If  I just put the group name 
in the field,  it returns one value, if I use the drop down, it returns another 
value.
Neither is the complete number of tickets.   If I use a hidden field and the 
group ID instead of the group name in the advanced search bar, I get the 
complete number of tickets e.g. '1000000079' =  "SGP000000000243".  The problem 
with this is my users can't do this.  Well, they can, but they don't know what 
to do and it is not as easy as just selecting the drop down or typing in the 
group name.
Any ideas?
Claire
