Re: Escalation Issue
Might not help you in this instance, but I always hide and rename the real Last Modified By Last Modified Time fields, add 2 new fields and Then I put in workflow that set these new fields appropriately (at about Execution order 10 via filters of course). I always add a hidden display on field called ztmp_ByPassWorkflow Then I can set whatever fields I wish via filters running in execution order 1-9 including ztmp_ByPassWorkflow Which typically does a goto 1000, this way I skip all the other set fields/etc I typically also do not update (my new Fields) Last Modified By and Time if it is a System User doing the modification ex: AR_ESCALATOR, Remedy Application Service, etc Doug Tanner From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of LJ Longwing Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2008 10:09 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Escalation Issue Please note that I said 'in a supported way'BMC doesn't support doing direct DB updates of tables...:) From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vijayalakshmi Paulraj Sent: Monday, December 08, 2008 10:57 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Escalation Issue ** You can also use a very simple SQL Update query update table_name set assignee_groups = ';0;' where your_condition ThanksRegards, Vijayalakshmi Paulraj From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of LJ Longwing Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2008 1:47 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Escalation Issue Only way you can update a record without changing the last mod by and date (in a supported way) is through a 'merge' action on the recordyou could if you would like, write an API program that would update the records via merge, which wouldn't cause the last mod fields to change (if I remember correctly)...or do you also need to set the fields during the merge to have them not auto updatedI forget.

Re: Escalation Issue
Only way you can update a record without changing the last mod by and date (in a supported way) is through a 'merge' action on the recordyou could if you would like, write an API program that would update the records via merge, which wouldn't cause the last mod fields to change (if I remember correctly)...or do you also need to set the fields during the merge to have them not auto updatedI forget. _ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sree Vyas Sent: Monday, December 08, 2008 12:55 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Escalation Issue ** Hi All, I have inherited one escalation which change Assignee group to Public for all the records.

What about creating a View Form containing only the RequestID and Assignee Group Field. You can run the Escalation on the View Form and modified date gets not updated.
