This was just a report using the user tool of those fields on the incident.

Paul:

Tell us some more about the report you reference.  Is it an Analytics report or 
some other report?  If so, what version of Analytics are you running?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Incident Transfers

**
I am trying to understand incident transfers.  Below is a use case I found when 
I ran a report against a particular incident.  Does anyone have any insight 
into how this is working?

Total transfers = 4; Group Transfers =3 and Individual transfers = 3.
I checked in the Audit Log and Work Detail

1.      The Audit Log shows assigned groups - Group 1, Group 2, Group 3 and 
Group 4

a.      Since the report shows 3 groups, does the dispatch from Group 1 to 
Group 2 not get counted?

2.      Audit Log shows assignees - User 1 and User 2

a.      User 3 was never the assignee but did add a work detail entry and 
dispatched the incident to Group 3

b.      User 4 was never the assignee but dispatched the incident to Group 4.

c.      I'm not sure who the 3 individual transfers are. I assume User 1 and 
User 2 are two of them, but why is the number 3 rather than 4?

3.      Total transfers is 4. What does this include?  I don't understand how 
this was calculated.





This is what I got from BMC as an explanation:



The Total Transfers counter is incremented by "1" each time the Incident is 
routed to a new Group or a new Individual or both at same time.



Test 1: When a Assignee and Assigned Group is changed



The Transfers between Individual = 1 and Transfers between Group =1 and Total 
Transfers =1.



Test 2: When only the Assignee is changed and the Assigned Group is kept same 
i.e unchanged



The Transfers between Individual = 2 and Transfers between Group=1 and Total 
Transfers= 2.



Test 3: When only Assigned Group is changed and  the Assignee selected is same 
in both the groups



The Transfers between individual = 2 and Transfers between Group=2 and Total 
Transfers = 3



Hence, total transfer is not the sum of group transfer value and individual 
transfer value.
