BMC Service Desk Automation module workflows

The BMC Service Desk Automation module enables you to automates service requests that appear as change requests, incidents or work orders requested by the end user from the BMC Service Request Management system. 

This section describes the BMC Service Desk Automation module workflows.

• • Process Event workflow
  • Complete Ticket workflow
  • Change Management
  • Incident Management
  • Task Management
  • Work Order Management

You access the BMC Service Desk Automation module workflows using the TrueSight Orchestration Development Studio Project Navigator. The BMC Service Desk Automation module is organised in the folder structure as shown in the following figure:

Process Event workflow

The Process Event workflow receives alerts from the BMC Remedy AR System and extracts and validates notification data. Also, depending on the Remedy form which triggered the alert event, the corresponding process is called to read and validate the change ticket. For example, if a change request has triggered the alert, a Process Change Event workflow is run to read and validate the information in the change request.

Change Management

The Change Management folder contains the workflows that enable TrueSight Orchestration to connect with the change management application and perform the required tasks. 

Create Change workflow

This workflow creates a change record in the Change Management application.

Process Change Event workflow

The Process Change Event workflow determines how a change ticket is processed. This workflow reads the change details retrieved from the change request and after validating whether the change is valid, invokes the fulfillment use case.

Incident Management

The Incident Management folder contains the workflows that enable TrueSight Orchestration to connect with the incident management application and perform the required tasks. 

Process Incident Event workflow

The Process Change Event workflow determines how an incident is processed via TrueSight Orchestration. The incident details are sent to TrueSight Orchestration via an alert, which reads, validates, and then invokes the fulfillment use case. The status of the incident is moved to the next stages as per the workflow progress.

Task Management

The Task Management folder contains the workflow that enables TrueSight Orchestration to connect with the task management application and perform the required tasks. 

Update Task Status workflow

The Update Task Status workflow updates the status of the task created as part of the change request.

Work Order Management

The Work Order Management folder contains workflows that enable TrueSight Orchestration to connect with the Work Order Management application and perform the required action. 

Process Work Order

The Process Work Order workflow reads a work order request, which is sent as an event and reads, validates, and triggers the fulfillment use case. The status of the work order is updated at each stage of the process.
