Hi,
Unions are not possible as such, but it is not hard, and quite robust, to
create filters that sync the relevant data from various forms into another
form, which will then have the same data as the union would have.
Instead of count(*), you can create counter-records in a counter-forms
that
Yup... that is exactly what I did and it works great. Thanks Fred.

No issues. There is workflow that we have on the ARS side to help with the
assignment of tickets, notification, etc when an event is fed from OV. We also
have significant correlation and filtering happening on the OV side so that we

You have to have the Remedy database be able to read data from the external

I believe those entries are for the types of approval notifications which

Has anyone integrated RKM with Remedy and managed to pass the current user
information so it does not prompt for a user name every time.

The integration does not take the current user name.. There is a user (I
think called SelfHelp) that is created that is automatically used by RKM
that is used in the data visualization field to display the contents of the
knowledge base..
Has that user been created in RKM??
Joe
Yeah, I agree. This will require the same amount of filters as below. I
missed the execution order in my previous post. The filter(s) should fire at
an execution order less than the one that is causing the error message and
the GOTO action should be one greater than the object causing the error.
The OOB integration of Remedy with RKM sets it up so that you don't need to do
this. What exactly are you trying to do? What it boils down to is that a
session ID must be generated and stored for the given user in the KMS:Session
form. This session ID then gets included in the query portion
The filter log is not helpful, it just shows the field being set to the current
time stamp (because the value isn't being pulled from the form it's supposed to
be because the filter is incorrectly changing to current transaction from the
correct selection criteria). I didn't grab the SQL log,
