BMC Helix Remedyforce 20.22.01 Upgrading

Configuring profile-level permissions after self-upgrade or automatic upgrade

This topic was edited by a BMC Contributor and has not been approved.  More information.

Before you begin

If you are not upgrading from the previous release, ensure that you apply profile-level permissions for all releases in between.

Upgrade option

If you are using BMC Helix Remedyforce profiles or custom permission sets to manage permissions for your users, you might need to manually configure the updated profile-level permissions in a release. The following table lists the conditions in which you must manually configure profile-level permissions after you have self-upgraded or BMC has automatically upgraded your organization. However, if are using BMC Helix Remedyforce permission sets instead, you only need to  enable new features  after your organization is upgraded.

Upgrade optionCondition

Self-upgrade

You can self-upgrade to the latest version of BMC Helix Remedyforce by manually installing the BMC Helix Remedyforce managed package that is available on Salesforce AppExchange. The option to self-upgrade your organization is available only until the scheduled dates for the automatic upgrade by BMC.

You do not want to assign out-of-the-box BMC Helix Remedyforce permission sets and you did not configure the BMC Helix Remedyforce access levels for profiles in your organization (Step 2. Choose Security Level in the Package Installer wizard).

Automatic upgrade

BMC automatically upgrades all sandbox and production organizations on predefined dates. This automatic upgrade process is similar to how Salesforce pushes platform updates to your organization. For information about the dates on which BMC automatically upgrades sandbox and production organizations, see Release schedules.

You do not want to assign out-of-the-box BMC Helix Remedyforce permission sets to your users.

Note

If you are using profiles instead of permission sets to manage permissions for users, BMC strongly recommends that you start using BMC Helix Remedyforce permission sets. You can assign multiple permission sets to your users to control the accessibility of BMC Helix Remedyforce.

You have to assign the permission sets to your users only once. The next time a major release is automatically pushed to your organization, these permission sets are automatically updated. Moving to permissions sets will ensure that the automatic upgrade process is simplified and requires minimal manual post-upgrade configuration.
