Update Set (Original Names)

Description

06/18/2012 - 1

Defect 339 - SC task assigned to group notification is being sent to assignment group; should only be sent to queue managers.

06/13/2012 - 4

Requirement 381 - Incident: Change 'knowledge' checkbox to 'Knowledge Candidate'

06/13/2012 - 10

Requirement 386 - add a "save and stay" button to derived task forms

  • ensures the context version is just for context (and not forms)
  • removes the isAdvancedUI() condition on the form control version

06/13/2012 - 11

Requirement 386 - add a "save and stay" button to derived task forms

  • make sure button is available for inserts
  • match behavior of buttons called save & stay
  • match behavior of buttons called save & exit

06/13/2012 - 5

Requirement 386 - add a "save and stay" button to derived task forms

06/13/2012 - 6

Requirement 436 - Incident: Add 'Withdrawn by Client' to incident resolve code

06/12/2012 - 3

Requirement 463 - delegate end date should not have a default value (comment out code in sys_dictionary entry)

06/13/2012 - 9

Requirement 464 - New Call/Request: value in request's Client field should not be overwritten if it's already there from new call

  • change onLoad() script for SC item to properly parse & massage redirect parameters
  • change Wizard panel for New Call->Request to pass the Contact instead of the Client; there is currently no field for "client" in the only SC request we use, so this field is currently ignored and deprecated in this panel.

06/13/2012 - 2

Requirement 491 - Request Email Notification: send when SC tasks are assigned to unit/person

  • turned on sc_task events business rule
  • notification when group assignment occurs
  • notification when user assignment occurs (this one has a higher priority)
  • (temporary) change to sc_task email template to include description from parent item, since currently there is only one request type. This will have to be changed later; correct fix is for a meaningful description to be added to the sc_task.

06/12/2012 - 4

Requirement 509 - Categorization: rename some incident component categories.

  • change "Backup Devices" to "Storage Device (e.g., Disk/Tape drive)"
  • change "Storage Media" to "Storage Media (e.g., Diskett/Tape drive)"

06/19/2012 - 1

Requirement 523 - CMDB: change asset/device field to "Affected Component" and change type to reference (w/ modifications to requirement):

  • We will create a new field called 'Affected Component'. This field will be a reference field instead of a string and therefore searchable.
  • No data will be loaded into this new field. We will start from a blank table and allow folks to enter information or pick from items already in the list.
  • This field will only show up on new and open tickets.
  • The Asset/Device field will turn to read only. It will show up on open and closed tickets. It will not show up on tickets created after the release date.
  • Closed tickets will not show this new field. There will be no data changes to closed tickets.

06/13/2012 - 7

Requirement 523 - CMDB: change asset/device field to "Affected Component" and change type to reference.

  • collect existing entries (from all derived tables; i.e. incident, problem, change, request tasks/items replace CI refs)
  • add a new table and import a coalesced/clean version of CIs (extends cmdb_ci)
  • replace field w/ new reference field (put in Configuration app)
  • hide unsupported CMDB items in the Configuration app
    ...this will be a holdover until CMDB goes live.
