Using social collaboration

Chat integration

The chat functionality enables BMC Remedy ITSM users to initiate one-on-one or group live chat sessions in the context of a specific record (for example a change record) from within the BMC Remedy ITSM applications. Using this functionality, IT support users can chat with other IT support users and initiate collaborative resolution of an incident or management of a change, among other actions. Administrators can configure the application to save these chat sessions as a work info entry within the record.
