Managing supporting information for agreements

The Agreement form contains the following Supporting Information tabs:

• History – Allows you to track the history of all actions that were performed on the agreement by viewing the existing user-defined and system-defined actions or adding new user-defined actions.
• Incidents, Tasks, Problems, and Change Requests – Display the incidents, service requests, tasks, problems, and change requests that meet the service targets of the agreement.
• Documentation – Allows you to attach documents and URLs to the attachments that are required to close the agreement.

• Auditing – Displays the history of changes made to fields in the form. The BMC Remedyforce system administrator enables field history tracking for required fields.
  By default, Salesforce allows you to track 20 fields on a form. BMC recommends that you always track the Record Update Count field. For a field that is not tracked and for the changes in service targets, the text "Record Update Count" appears in the Changed Field column. For more information, see Enabling field history tracking.

  Note

  The Supporting Information section is not loaded in a new form. When you save the record, the Display Supporting Information link appears. Click this link to view the Supporting Information section. You can configure the Supporting Information section to always display by selecting the Always display Supporting Information for existing records check box. After displaying the Supporting Information section, click the Hide link to hide the Supporting Information section.
