Incident: allow additional filter-by options for "Activity" field; Track in the work notes log when the description and short description of the ticket is changed. Currently when the description or short description is changed there is no note in the work log that it has been changed.

User Administration: Need to come up with a way to flag student users of ServiceNow as their licenses differ than a regular ServiceNow User. Perhaps it's creating a student worker role or creating a report so that we can view users with the itil role as students. This is needed for reporting license use to ServiceNow. |

Knowledge: Status Update functionality - add 'Status Update' application that uses kb_knowledge to store/expose ITS status updates |

Incident: The 'Notify By' field has two items in it, email and none. Original thinking was that 'none' woudl stop the email notification to the clients. It was decided to not do this for a more consistent experience for customers. This box no longer does anything. Please remove so that folks do not think that selecting 'none' stops the emails to the clients. |
