We looked at it and there are potential issues. SSRS uses foreign keys and

Since Remedy doesn't create foreign keys, it won't know what tables are

ARServer is crashing. Try upgrading to the latest patch level of 7.0.1. If
that doesn't fix the problem, open a support ticket with BMC. ARServer
shouldn't crash regardless of what you throw at it; it's a defect in

Lyle,
It looks like you have some data dictionary corruption related to that form,
the reason it works when you delete and re-create is that it's assigned a
new form index and everything goes in as new instead of an update. You may
see if you can restore the DB from prod into your stage server,
I'd like to see if I'm understanding something correctly. Are there 70,000
people in each of the companies, because you've added the same 70,000 people to
each company, or does each company have a separate set of 70,000 people
unrelated to the people in any of the other companies?

You should not need to go through those hoops. It sounds like the
Multitenancy configuration in ITSM 7 will work for you. You create multiple
companies as you say, but no need for multiple People forms. Each person
record belongs to a single company (whichever), then you grant explicit
No - they're the same 70,000 people. Since the requester company ID goes into

Otherwise anyone could see any ticket.

I understand all of this, but each person must be available for each company.
There are only two ways to do this; either have one people database where each
company pulls from or load the entire people database into each company. If we
use one people database then everyone needs access to that
OK. Take a good luck at Chuck's reply. He has it right. There is no need for
you to have everyone in each company or to fiddle with the permissions in this

Correct me if I'm wrong but the following would probably work for you:

unrestricted access and/or create an escalation to populate
CTM:peoplepermission groups with company memberships for all the

Yes, so in that case, what about just adding the end users to each
