This seems popular
-
This is one of the reasons we restrict the option to "cancel" to admins; you have to remember to remove from the board.
Of course you can build-in workflow to allow analysts to cancel changes themselves; whereupon you can include nodes to move the card to a cancelled lane.
-
This remains on our long-term hit-list for enhancements. Alignment of the Data Providers as Paul puts it, between ICF and Workflow.
-
@Steve Giller noticed this is not tagged as enhancement. Could you please?
-
Bump...
-
I am pleased to say I believe we have a solution to this now. Ping me if anyone else would like to know what it is.
-
Wow. Many thanks. This is also a great contribution for others to read in future.
Looking forward to meeting you at HUG24 in March; I gather you're on the bill @Gareth Cantrell

@Gareth Cantrell that was a very helpful mock-up and I think there might be enough there for us to test it.
Am I asking too much to ask you for the equivalent for updates the other way? I.e. pushing/pulling a customer update on a Hornbill Request into the JIRA Cloud Issue.
@SamS I found this link for Webhooks (Webhooks (hornbill.com)) but I could not find a reference in there for how triggers work and as a result I can't write the trigger to test using the third part webhook system. Can you give any pointers to either docs or more info on what is required in there please or an example expression for a use case so we get the idea?
The two use cases are:
- A Customer updates a Hornbill Request and we want that 'sent' to Jira Cloud (this would only happen for Requests where Custom 33 had a JIRA Cloud issue reference)
- A technician updates a JIRA Cloud Issue with a 'customer' type update and we want that added to the Hornbill Request timeline with a Customer visibility
Many thanks in advance.

We've altered the last one from purpose/aim to:
Validation
- All steps taken and results documented - 1
- Some steps incomplete or results not captured - 0 -
I'm moving away from the classic "failed/success" change outcomes and have planned these five. Any comments from other SM users or perhaps feedback on what you guys do and what works in your environments?
Binary 'values' for each and required one-line explanation for any '0' answers
Implementation
- Fully implemented as planned - 1
- Partial implementation or back-out - 0
Impacts on Services / Users
- Impacts as defined and communicated - 1
- Greater or lesser impacts - 0
Detail of steps
- As defined in the CR or procedures - 1
- Fewer, more or amended steps - 0
Scheduling and timing
- Timing went to plan and in window - 1
- The planned timings didn't work out - 0
Purpose / aim
- Fully achieved (fixed/delivered) - 1
- Not fully achieved - 0These sum into change "Levels" 1-5 in the change board (a kind of gamification) and anything with either the Implementation as '0' or if it has two or more '0' gets pushed in Workflow for a post-implementation review (PIR).
In addition, a short written statement representing each positive or negative answer is compiled into an automatic paragraph of the outcome and posted to the resolution and our teams channel such as:

We've just noticed this portal UI issue which seems to be present across most of our ICFs:
In the example below, the field "In a few words..." is our h_summary. It's required but for some reason the red bar that indicates the required status is greyed-out; until you click the field.
This is causing our users to only enter data in the "Please provide full..." (h_description) field but then they fail validation when pressing NEXT; because they get reminded to enter the summary.
Can this be fixed please? All required fields should have the red flag and star consistently.
The same issue is present in other ICFs but it's not always the first field. This is our New Starter form where the issue appears in the mid section but not at the top or bottom:
-
Thanks both I will review with my infra guy and see what we can get going
-
@SamS we can't trigger based on Service Manager can we? So if an update is made by a Customer, we can't listen for that and send the data to Jira?
-
Has anyone please worked out the Jira to Service Manager data push?
For example, having updates or status changes on the Jira Issue pushed back via API into the (originating) Service Manager RequestID?
@Sam P or @Martyn Houghton or @Keith Stevenson or @Adith or @HHH? I see you have all been part of the Jira Cloud forum posts.
-
@Sam P did you get anywhere with this? I would quite like to push the RequestID to a Jira field also.

+1 I can see a use for this.
If HB were looking for a 'project' to connect this to, I think there is a whole case for customers to be able to do more on their own Requests as per my previous request for buttons that Customers can use themselves to Close, Escalate, Hold, Approve (and now Add Connections)

Indeed, we have quite an array of custom buttons and I do have one for change calendar. Maybe that was a bad example. I did make another post previously about the change calendar being a permanent link on all CRs.

Today's release notes:
- It would be more helpful if you listed the KE numbers for fixes not the PM numbers. AFAIK, it's the KE not the PM numbers that are quoted to us when you resolve premier support incidents into the backlog so we can search our emails for them. Do you ever quote PM numbers to customers?
- This release contained the Request Insights but it was not mentioned on the release notes; so quite a nig omission...

+1 for another few types (colours) except I would add something to this.
Like Gareth said, we use notices for guidance and sometimes there are permanent pieces of guidance we want to persist for most if not all of the lifecycle of a Request. Examples: link to the Change Calendar for changes, (in the absence of a button for this), links to procedures or documents for a given ticket like Starters/Leavers. It would be useful to be able to be able to place some key bits of useful information like this in the Information Box
-
At the HUG23 some other HB customers were experiencing the same issue as us: Cloudflare alter the public IP address without notice for their service so we lose connection until we update our network settings to match.
We have a solution in place for this involving a script that runs on a server to detect the IP address change and then spits an email out into Hornbill inbound rules which assigns to the infra team to run a standard change to update it.
Willing to share the script privately if you PM me as this is slightly off topic.
-
@Sam P these are all set in the Service Manager Application Settings. use this as a filter and you will see them all. Take care to click the "include advanced settings" because, for some reason, Hb have made half of them standard and half of them advanced...
ui.app.com.hornbill.servicemanager.operation
The "popup" one determines what options can be made available there and there is:
The one for general updates is this I think: guest.ui.app.com.hornbill.servicemanager.operation.defaultVisibility.update
-
Typo here is misleading:
Requests Entity - logRequest (hornbill.com)
...should read "h_sys_contact" (i.e. no 's')

Enhancement: New Hornbill Automation function/task to "Link Request"
in Service Manager

While there is an experimental method for this, I think it remains a popular enhancement request.
