Hi @Adambingley
Without knowing the full scenario I could suggest a couple of options to handle this...
1. Could you use the manual option of raising a Change from within the Service Request so that the primary details (Summary, Description etc) are copied over for you to prevent retyping. This will link itself to the service request when raised and enable you to track/update them together?2. A more in depth automated option could be to include the automatic raising of a Change Request via BPM as part of your Service Request process. At a certain stage of the Service Request process or based on certain criteria or approvals you could choose to automatically create a change and populate it with the relevant data.
Kind Regards,
Dave

Hi @ALIPO
Thanks for the post, you can use sub-statuses to implement this functionality on a request, you can find details of how it works here https://wiki.hornbill.com/index.php/Request_Sub-statuses
Kind Regards,
Dave.

Thanks for the heads up @davidrb84
Will do some tests around it to see if we can make some improvements in the future.

Hi @davidrb84
Just to investigate further, was this a one off loading issue or does it permanently load like this every time?
Kind Regards,
Dave.

Sorry had to check and test this one out to confirm. In order to prevent getting stuck in loops we don't trigger a BPM update when a timeline entry is made in this case. The best course of action is as you have previously requested to add a suspend operation for sub-status change which we'll progress in your other thread.
Kind Regards,
Dave

Hi @AndyColeman
If you can provide a couple of non-sensitive data screenshots just to show the SLT, Response date/Resolution Date as displayed in the request list and then one of the corresponding request details service level section so I can match up the figures and I can take a look.
It may also be useful to know what text is displayed in the tooltip when you hover over the SLT indicators.
Kind Regards,
Dave.

In this case the operation will be waiting for an update to the request timeline, its not tracking changes to the request record values.

Dave

Another thought, with the on hold period values... might be worth putting 0 into the other columns for years/months/days etc.

Sorry have just seen this post. I'm just posting up now in the announcements of a new update for Service Manager so if you check on your instance shortly you should be able to apply the latest update to correct the issue.
Kind Regards,
Dave.

Apologies for the issue being caused. We're investigating the issue right now and we'll look to get a solution provided as soon as possible.
Kind Regards,

Thanks everyone for the feedback, I can see why it could be difficult to read with certain screen contrasts etc. Will discuss with our product team to see if we can find a better way to address this.
Regards,
Dave.

In addition to the functionality @Martyn Houghton mentioned above, a recent update now gives you the option to send an email the customer when an update is added to request.
You can find details for configuring that here https://wiki.hornbill.com/index.php/Update_Action_Item#Customer_Visibility_Updates

Hi @Adambingley
Just to pick up on your last post, the "Requests caused by change" report will show requests which have a linked Change Request with a relationship of "Caused by". So for example if you link a change to an incident and choose the relationship "Caused By" then it should be shown in the report.
Hope that makes sense,
Regards,
Dave

Thanks for the post. I can confirm that this has been addressed ready for the next update of Service Manager so that you will be able to control whether to continue to reset or maintain the sub-status when closing down the request.
Kind Regards,
Dave.
-
The settings should be automatically saved as you toggle each one so there is no need for a save button here. If you make a change and refresh is the change reflected?
Regards,
Dave.

Thanks for the post, no issue just an update to our chart library which defaults to a single colour. As explained here we will be re-introducing alternating colours in the next update of Service Manager.
Kind Regards,
Dave.

Thanks for the suggestions @davidrb84
@James Ainsworth Some considerations for future enhancements of reporting options.

Hi @davidrb84
The post was really just to clarify that the underlying chart library changes were the reason for the display changes to single series data... there is no specific plan to introduce multi series charts right now but please feel free to post up examples of the type of charts/reports you are looking for and the requirements can be reviewed by our product team for possible future inclusion.
Kind Regards,
Dave

Hi Hayley,
The latest Service Manager update is now using an updated version of our charting library which now shows each data series in a single colour, hence the single blue colour in the bar charts but multiple colours in pie charts etc. We're in the middle of rolling our charting updates and colour/theme changes so we can look to see if its possible to reintroduce a range of colours for a single series of data as we move forward.
Kind Regards,
Dave.

Hi @TomW
All date times are stored in UTC time in the database which will be the same as GMT. We then adjust times on the front end based on the user's timezone preferences, hence you see the display time being an hour ahead as this will be in BST (GMT+1).
Hope that makes sense?
Kind Regards,
Dave

Hi @Gareth Noon
Glad that this has improved the layout for you. With regards to the colours, we've applied a new chart theme following an update to our charting tool which is now using a blue/green toned colour wheel so as you update charts you'll have the new set of colours. More than happy to accept feedback as the chart display improvements are still in progress.
Kind Regards,
Dave.

There is no current ETA on this I can give but we do have a change raised for this we'll be looking at this in the near future.
