That is dangerous Natalie!  My imagination can be pretty wild!

I am going to go the old (for Jason Miller) ITSM 6.3 (snicker) route and just 
create a button.  Much easier and I know it will work the way I want/need it to 
work.  My users are used to a button with a picture of a Pager on it.  It will 
make them happy to see a small piece of the old system on the new system they 
all hate with a passion!

Thank you all for your input.

Claire

Claire:

I don't know of a way to do what you're asking with regard to the templates, 
short of adding all your users to a common group and making the template 
available to that group.  However, if you have as many ITSM users at your site 
as we do, that would be even more painful than adding all your groups to the 
template!

Seems to me like you might do better to create a customized button that uses 
either email or a web service to submit your tickets, though I can't say 
offhand that I've ever seen something like that done from within ITSM at our 
site - all the instances I'm familiar with where we've done that were outside 
of Remedy.  Maybe some of the other developers can speak a little more 
intelligently to that point?

We also use Kinetic Data's Kinetic Request product for submitting ITSM tickets 
via web form at our site.  We offer to set up a Kinetic Service Request for all 
of the new groups that want to come onboard and use ITSM, and a large number of 
those forms get added to our Service Catalog.  Not all have the need for a 
Kinetic form, but for the most part, it works great. We have a handful of 
Remedy support groups in ITSM, and our form submits to the appropriate team 
based on what application the user's question is regarding (which they pick 
from a dropdown and corresponds to a Product in our Product Catalog).  But you 
can pretty much design the forms however you want - radiobuttons for common 
issues that always set a particular Summary, dropdowns for Impact and Urgency 
(or, alternately always hard code them behind the scenes to the same thing), 
other standard controls for asking a bunch of detailed questions about whatever 
the request is that get added to the Detailed Description.  You're really only 
limited by your imagination.

Good luck!

Subject: [EXTERNAL] ITSM 7.6.04 Incident Templates

I have read the documentation, looked on the developer community and even in 
old ARSList email...

Is it possible to create a template on the Incident form that ANY group can use?

We have a need to create an Incident template that anyone can use to report a 
missed email/page from Remedy.  In my 6.3 system I had a button that I had 
workflow attached to that created the ticket and assigned it to the appropriate 
group and anyone who had a write license could use it.  The templates in 7.6.04 
require all of the groups to be added.  This is a pain!
