Hi,Is there a way to print processes created in Process Designer v. 11.5? The older versions allowed you to view the whole process including sub-processes and expand all stages and tasks. The new version doesn’t allow any of that nor can I print. Does anyone know how to do that? I tried to print but it doesn’t seem to work, the process barely shows in the orientation landscape either. I had to scale it down to 70 to actually see it on the paper if printed. Thanks in advance
Hello,I created an html formatted email but when the email notification comes in via Outlook, all the html code shows and none of the formatting. Any idea how to get it to come through. We are using assyst 11.5.We currently use .txt files and I’m trying to get it to look nicer, insert links etc.Thanks
Hi all. I am new to assyst ETM and I want a simple channel / mapper to send an email to the specified address. I cannot find any documentation or training material to explain this.Your assistance would be appreciated.Thanks!T
Has anybody out there built an assystETM channel which will process an email and log a new ticket using a specific Custom Form?If so I could do with some guidance as to how you reference the specific Custom Form you want to use.We will be looking at taking the data out of the body of the email to populate the custom fields within the custom form which I am comfortable with, I am just struggling with how to call that custom form.
Hi! While testing the anonymous affected user feature in assyst 11.2, I noticed some unwanted behaviors. First off, from the assystNet side, when filling a user fills out a form and uses the anonymous user feature, the information entered in the anonymous fields is replaced by the logging user’s information when the form is submitted. This means that the anonymous user feature cannot really be used from assystNet, since the data captured is immediately replaced. The second behavior originates from assystWeb. We have been able to change the Affected User field so that it contains an anonymous user and save the ticket in that state. However, when performing a “Closed / Resolved” or “Pending Closure” action on the ticket, which can both result in the ticket being marked as closed, an error occurs which prevents us from executing the action. Here is a screenshot of what occurs: It’s important to note that my team administrates the platform, but that we don’t have direct access to the con
Hi Everyone,Has anyone figured out how to automatically delete the browser cache after an upgrade? To delete the cache for only the assyst site specifically?We find it a huge pain to communicate to all our user community to delete their browser cache after an upgrade. It’s also a strain on our internal helpdesk.We would love to do this automatically for users at login using a script pushed to the users machines.Thanks.Martin ProvostInnovapost
I’m working on a Email Channel that has this “Record to Update - Formatted Reference Range” - currently I’m running Debugger with the lines commented out below. Now with the lines uncommented, I get the error - I don’t quite understand why I’m getting this error. Just in case this helps with the initEventListSrch…
We have a lot of change forms which are using substitution keywords $LOGGED_ON_SVD and $LOGGED_ON_ASSYST_USER in custom fields. We did an update from 11.5.1 to 11.6 and I would have expected that the legacy keywords would be automatically replaced with the javabean-like notation, but it still shows the old notation in the forms. When trying to copy an existing form with legacy keywords in the Layout Designer it throws an error: The default value of this expression is invalid.Same error shows up when re-saving a custom field with such a default value expression. Seems like a bug or am I missing something? Best regards,Chris
How to use AssystRest to insert a batch of events?
I want to be able to hide this ITEM/ELEMENT “Item.product.shortCode = PIMS” in my look up via my look up filter expression box in my look up field on my form . Every expression I've tried had broken the look up search completely and wont return any results. All im trying to do is hide 1 item from my lookup without having to create a whole separate look up without that item in it. Can anyone please advise how this can be done ?

I’ve been trying to work through some test cases for where Workmanager may be beneficial but am struggling to visualize/realize how best it could be utilized. I’ve been reading through the wiki and understand the concepts but before presenting to any leadership and/or managers I’d like to present some examples to help tell the story of what it is capable of.Is anyone using Workmanager for things like Change, Request, Incident?Best practices you’ve found or suggestions you’d be willing to share?Thanks so much
Is there any way to un-tag an item as a known problem? It looks like it is a system field.
Hello - we have had occurrences in our change request approval process, where email replies are not getting fully processed.In most cases, on decision tasks, when a user using the link to reply with their approval it works fine; however, we have had cases where it didn’t. What we see in those cases, is that the process works except the associated change workflow is never advanced/processed.Even when we look at email in our ETM channel, it shows successful. Also, in Assyst, the change event also has the email reply attachment and you see the reply in the action history as well.In ETM, we then reprocess the decision task reply and then the workflow is processed correctly.Have any other customers run into this type of situation and if so what if anything did you do to determine root cause? Thanks in advance.Scott.
We are currently going through the installation of the assyst chatbot in our test system, and are starting to think about how we can report on user interactions with the chatbot.Would any existing customers of the chatbot be able to suggest the best way on how the report on the efficiency of chatbot interactions? So interactions that result in events being logged but more so the interactions that do not result in events being logged. The desire being to identify gaps in Chatbot responses or to highlight the most common types of questions/language used by users looking for services.We are an on premise assyst customer 11.5.Thank you
Hi All, Has anyone identified a way of tracking/listing users who have set up their own custom homepage (not using the new functionality in 11.5+). We are looking at rolling users onto a new default homepage but would like to identify users who have their own custom ones created, so they do not lose their own designed ones. Thanks in AdvanceKevin
What is the REST API parameter to specify a web custom field value?In Legacy API it was:custom.field.<id> = valueHow is it in assyst REST API?
Hello - We are using AssystWEB 11.1 and need a report that shows the remarks for just one action type. I can’t find a canned report for this. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
We currently run IFS on Oracle using the ASFU license. We are putting in a very small Assyst installation with <400 users If I install on Oracle then the help system will fail if there is a problem with our production database, obviously not idealI considered sql server express but the documentation says it is “not recommended”. I wondered if anyone knew if there was a specific technical issue or if it’s more of a sizing issue
We are accessibility testing our portal following an upgrade to 11.6.0 and our testers have raised a question around aria labelling on elements within the update history (shown below). The labelling states that this is a clickable element, which is correct. However, actually clicking on it doesn't seem to do anything other that affect the CSS (border pictured above).My question:Does anyone have any functionality (that we may not use or have turned on) that results in any different behaviours? Contact User actions, pop-ups, etc?
We have an ETM Channel where we want to fetch a n existing Building in Database using “Address1”.Basically, the details that we can use to fetch Building Short Code are:Address 1 Postal CodeWe don’t see any lookup filter for Address1. Is there any work around?
We have created an ETM Channel where we are creating new Items. To create an Item we need to provide Section-Department. Everything works fine until we try to provide NULL Department for Section Department.Example: Section-Department “ABC-” already exist in Database. But when we are trying to fetch it from ETM it returns all the Section Departments that has Section as “ABC”.
Hi,In MSEdge, the file is downloaded but not opened automatically. Is there a way to configure MSEdge to auto open the file [clientJobRunner.assystApplication]? I looked at various MSEdge (not business install) settings and could not figure it out. I did see a possibility of configuring MSEdge Business Group Policy: AutoOpenAllowedForURLs: URLs where AutoOpenFileTypes can apply AutoOpenFileTypes: List of file types that should be automatically opened on downloadOr Windows Registry: Windows registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER Key path Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\AutoOpenFileTypes\ Value name 1 Value type REG_SZ Value data "sapaox" HKEY_CURRENT_USER Key path Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\AutoOpenAllowedForURLs Value name 1 Value type REG_SZ Value data "https://web-address/" Jean
Is there a place to check the status on Problem tickets, specifically P16029 regarding the Assign to Me button being grayed out. I see that this problem does not appear as part of the 11.6 fix pack, so I assume this issue hasn’t been resolved yet. The issue still remains for workers in a service department that are only allowed a certain set of Action Types. If the service department is not “locked down” to certain actions, the Assign to Me button works without any issues.For example, if Action Types are specified for the Service Department, the Assign to Me button will be grayed out. If the Service Department doesn’t have any Action Types listed (has access to ALL actions) then the Assign To Me button works.
Afternoon all. It is early doors on this functionality, but does anyone now if there is a permission relating to the administration of keywords on Offerings in the Service Designer in v11.6? I am interested in whether we can enable our business users to manage their own search terms.Thanks
