Business Rule not working
When OpManager sends an incident request to SD plus, I have a business rule controlling where the call is destined i.e. the support group, priority, impact etc. I have a condition set in the Business Rule that if the subject contains the word "Clear"then the call is nullified. However the Business Rule is ignoring this condition. See attached. The impact of this is that oPManager raises an incident to for the fault, then raises a seperate incident to say all is working again, which is a bit silly

Use-case 16: How To Manage Contract Employees In Your Active Directory
Contract employees are similar to your conventional employees. But what is the big fuss all about?! Your full time employees don't come with an expiry date. So what are the advantages of having an expiry date? 1. Expired account become unusable at a specific time, like a disabled user(the user account is not disabled when the account expires). 2. This is more or less like an automation provided by Microsoft to disable users. 3. Really handy, just in case you forget to disable the account once the

How to send email about what (fields and/or replies) was updated in the ticket with before and after value?
How to send email about what (fields and/or replies) was updated in the ticket with before and after value? We have Business Rules setup for higher management for critical tickets. Currently they are alerted whenever a critical ticket is created or edited multiple times but they find these alerts as not useful because they do not know what was being edited, they only know that it is being edited. We do not expect them to go to the ticket to see what was changed, it is expected that they see what

Company info for templates
I wasn't sure whether to post this under idea or question because I'm not sure if I'm just missing something here or if it's just not possible currently. I work for a mid-sized bank that has around 100 locations. Each location has a teller, CSR, Branch Manager, Asst. BM and loan people. We are having issues with admins creating accounts in AD and inputting things slightly different, for instance one will abbreviate Street while another will type it all out. This causes issues when we try to do
User Modification Templates functionality built into User Creation Templates?
The User Modification Templates are nice, but I would like to see the auto-fill rules available in the User Creation Templates. It seems more appropriate to be in the creation side anyway. I work in a large organization with dozens of different office locations, so it would be nice to setup a new user template, and when a specific office is selected it auto-fills the address information. Otherwise, I have to create a couple dozen different templates, or have my helpdesk copy/paste the info into

monitor is currently in Unmanaged state- but alarms sometimes
Hello, We have a couple of Java Runtime monitors in an "unmanaged" state. However, every once in a while they will alarm for being down. Our fix is to enable the monitor- poll- then place back into an unmanaged state. We don't want to delete these monitors, but they are not currently in use. Is there something else I should change for a JavaRuntime monitor if I un-manage the monitor? Here is our current process to fix after we get an alarm on a unmanaged device. The process is a little involved

Newbie: Reducing emails when error occurs
Hi, I'm new to this site, so forgive me if this has already been answered. I've recently been tasked with looking at our opmanager setup. One of the things that stands out for me is the number of emails we receive. I know part of this is due to the person currently looking after the system not fully configuring the setup. I also think emails could be lowered if we didn't report on every issue, my idea would be something like this Opmanager detects issue (x1) waits 5 mins Opmanager detects issue
