MEETING NOTES
DISCUSSION
- Released one item on Friday 9/6. No issues reported with the release.
- Development for opening up the related records fields to be able to be updated at any time - a few hours of development, a few days of testing.
- Review procedure for going through all open enhancement requests to determine if they are still viable and get them entered into the appropriate form in ServiceNow.
- Adriene would like to remind everyone to go through their list of enhancements and review them for anything that should not be done and removed from the list. She wants to reduce our demand from this list by 10%.
- When reviewing the list Process Owners should ask themselves if this enhancement would add value to more than just one unit. Will this help to improve the process? Will the enhancement move ITSM forward?
- Adriene would like to remind everyone to go through their list of enhancements and review them for anything that should not be done and removed from the list. She wants to reduce our demand from this list by 10%.
