assyst General

Looking to see if any other assyst customers are currently utilizing Sailpoint in their organizations and if they’ve explored or setup ETM/ipaas integrations or did so via Boomi, etc.

We have been trying to use the substitution keywords to get a mailto link to send to customers through an action template that sends an email to our mailboxreader/etm This is mostly working, we can get the  event reference in the subject line,  but cannot get the substitution keywords to populate the body of the mailto. we have tried a few things and its so close but just doesnt put the subject/body in the right place, seems to not be picking up the ? correctly if we do  this it works great, without a body of the email<vtl>#set($eventLink = "mailto:XXX@test.com?subject=Approved Ref:")</vtl><a href="$eventLink$new.event.formattedReference">approve</a> to try to get the body in we tried<vtl>#set($eventLink = "mailto:XXX@test.com?subject=Approved Ref:")</vtl><vtl>#set($eventLink2 = "?body= Approved%0A%0DAdd%20Additional%20comments%20below%20if%20required")</vtl><a href="$eventLink$new.event.formattedReference$eventLink2">approve</a&

Hi,Would anyone be able to advise whether or not it is possible to download ALL attachments on an event in one go (similar to Outlook) from within assystWeb, instead of having to click on each attachment individually?Thanks in advance.

Hi - I’d like to set up a monitor to list unassigned tickets in my SVD’s queue. Can’t figure it out. Anyone? Thanks.

Hi Team, We have a requirement where for a Service Request we want to open a task on the “Required By” date of the Service Request. Is there a way to a have a condition on a task in Process Designer to open it on the “Required By” Date? Thanks & Regards,Manish Verma

Hi all,Is there a way to copy existing datamappers? I have an existing datamapper and need to create two new ones and they are almost identical. Re-entering them all manually will take hours. Unfortunately. I cannot combine the functionality of all three into the original. Thanks!Trevor

In the assyst 11.7.3 release notes there is an enhancement to Event management“A Process can be added to, replaced, or removed from an existing Event using the 'edit Event' form. Support Users can now add, replace, or remove a process when editing an Event. Previously it was necessary to open the Process Designer to perform this function.”I can’t find anything on the wiki as to how to go about this.  Does anyone know?

 While the ticket is logged, and process is running I am able to edit the process and enter this Substitution Keyword to bring the Event Category but when doing this to new process before logging a ticket, it does not accept this keyword. Any Solution?

Hi Team,We have a requirement to fetch ItemSerialNumber linked to an Affected User. Using below query in form but getting error. Please help.select Item.serialNumber from item as Item where (Item.product.productClass.shortCode='CELL' and Item.user.id = @*@$new.affectedUser.id@*@) Thanks,Manish Verma

Hi all,  I am looking for the javadoc domain model for the 11.6 release. It used to exist for the 10SP7 release here ...https://wiki.axiossystems.com/assyst10SP7Wiki/javadoc-domain-model … but it is no longer available. I tried https://wiki.axiossystems.com/assyst11-6Wiki/javadoc-domain-model/ based on the 11.6 Wiki URL but no dice.I tried searching different combinations of domain model and by navigating the site but no luck.Thanks!Trevor

I have been playing with v11.7 of assyst and uncovered a few minor issues during the DB upgrade in a DEV environment (from v11.3.8), so I am just posting those for your information:The DB upgrade script fails when trying to add the stored procedure RESET_EVENT_HKS, which already exists in our schema.Mitigation: delete the stored procedure before running the upgrade.Long term solution suggestion: Ideally have the upgrade script always drop the stored proc prior to creation.Migration of forms will fail if they have multiple Web Custom Groups with the same label (in design mode), DB upgrade SQL fails with a duplicate error.Mitigation: before the upgrade, change the labels in design mode to make them unique, and then add the proper display label as a customization at the Global-English level.Long term solution suggestion: allow renaming of the label during DB migration to add a suffix, for example: “…_1”, “…_2” etc.

We have a requirement where we want to fetch all the items that have word “MODEL” in shortcode. Is there a way to get this in ETM?

How do you handle responses to/from users on Tasks? We don’t have the Advanced Event Monitoring license for our users, but we have many processes that involve sub tasks, such as a user termination workflow. When our workers process those tasks, they may try sending a message to the affected user for more info, etc. Of course, the affected user cannot respond to the ticket via AssystNet. How does your team handle this for those that do not have Advanced Event Monitoring enabled?

Hi Everyone,I was wondering if anyone has been able to display the Section-Unit Manager as a default value in a customizer form. We want to have certain forms, not only be assigned to certain managers, but have those manager’s names be displayed on the form itself.So for example, if a form needs Director approval, we use:$new.affectedUser.department.section.branch.division.manager.shortCodeif a form needs Divisional Manager approval:$new.affectedUser.department.section.branch.manager.shortCode if a form needs Middle Manager:$new.affectedUser.department.section.manager.shortCodeBut for Section Unit, we have a problem...(Branch Unit and Section Unit are the same thing… not sure why a “label” was used)The section unit is that weird concatenation of section_sc and branch_sc, so we are not sure on how to get the correct “Default Value Expression” to populate the field with the Section Unit Manager, or if it’s even possible.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Kris

Hi.  I’ve found that in an assystWeb form, since moving to v11.6 (currently at v11.6.4), if you select a lookup from a list the focus is always returned to the top of the form, rather than tabbing to the next field.  Is this correctable, please?Thanks,Steven

Has anyone using ETM/IPAAS run into an unknown error with creating events or in any integration use case really where the error cause is shown as follows?Looking to see if others are experiencing this issue or if it’s truly unique to an integration we had with a servicenow vendor and our assyst instance via AGS.All that displays as the cause in the failure log of etm is this:500 - <html><head><title>Error</title></head><body>Internal Server Error</body></html>

HiI’ve been looking at our Contact User form to update it for some new custom fields that are needed and, whilst it’s been amended, wanting to do a little tidying/hiding of fields we no longer use.  One that I noticed is the Order Approval Threshold field in the Organisation section.  When I looked in the Customiser, I realised that it doesn’t appear in the Form Content list so it can’t be managed at all.  Is this correct, please?  As we don’t use it at the moment, being able to hide it would be useful.Thanks

Error in IPaaS log - I’ve been looking through the log for the reason for why I cannot get into AssystETM and came across this error.

On the IFS assyst Mobile app, once logged in to our site, the Home page shows the IFS assyst logo. Is there a way of changing that logo to be something different?  

We are looking for an action type which is not visible (in the action log) to other service departments. Never. Really Never. :-) Is this possible? I take it that action types flagged as private are visible to creating service departments and current assigned service departments. This is not what we are looking for.Take care,Mathias

I am wondering if there is a database table that stores the customization details done on particular aliases via the Customizer? For example, I am looking to find what fields are visible to which aliases on specific custom forms. Is there a table that stores this? I’m looking to do this on the Item A field specifically, which is a system field.So far I’m using jptsys_def_state_grp table, which allows me to find which fields have a customization on specific aliases. Now I’d like to know what those customizations are… My organization is currently on assyst 11.2.3 if that helps.Thanks in advance!

Hello, We recently upgraded our assyst production environment to version 11.6.3, and converted off the legacy numbering system. Since the change, our implementation of the assyst Mailbox Reader and our assystETM installation are both creating events which have negative incident_ref values. This did not happen in any of our non-production environments during our testing.A couple of examples are below:  Has anyone run into this before? Thanks, Duncan
