Requester console permissions

The Requester Console serves as the front end for the BMC Helix ITSM: Service Desk: Incident Management and BMC Helix ITSM: Change Management applications. It enables users to quickly submit change requests or incidents.

Important

  • None of the permissions listed in this table need an application user license.
  • If BMC Service Request Management is installed, then the Requester console permissions are replaced by the BMC Service Request Management application permissions . In this case, the Requester console permissions are not available to select.

Permissions

Description

Best practice

Requester Console Config

Users with Requester Console Config permission can perform the following functions:

  • Configure Application Settings specific to the Requester console functions.
  • Create and update Summary Definitions that are used within the Requester console.
  • Configure Survey questions.
  • Configure Request rules.

Grant these permissions to individuals requiring access to configure these functions. Typically, you grant these permissions to someone who has the role of an Application Administrator.

Requester Console Master

Users with Requester Console Master permission can perform the following functions:

  • Configure Application Settings specific to the Requester console functions.
  • Create and update Summary Definitions that are used within the Requester console.
  • Configure Survey questions.
  • Configure Request rules.
  • View and limited update access to the Service Request form.

The Requester Console Master permissions supersede the Requester Console Config permission. Therefore, users with these permissions do not need to be granted the Requester Console Config permission.

Grant these permissions to individuals requiring access to configure the previously mentioned component functions. Typically, you grant these permissions to someone playing the role of an Application Administrator.

Summary Definition Config

Users with Summary Definition Config permission can create and update Summary Definitions that are used within the Requester console.

The Requester Console Config and Requester Console Master permissions supersede the Summary Definition Config permission. Therefore, users with either of these permissions do not need to be granted the Summary Definition Config permission.

Grant these permissions to individuals requiring access to configure the previously mentioned component functions. Typically, you grant these permissions to someone playing the role of an Application Administrator.
