Notification Engine
The BMC Remedy IT Service Management (BMC Remedy ITSM) Notification Engine provides a back-end workflow model for defining which notifications should be sent, based on events in the application. To configure notifications, the primary option provided with the BMC Remedy ITSM Suite is exposed on the People form for support staff. Additional behind the scenes configuration is available through back-end forms, but you must understand how all of the pieces fit together before attempting these types of changes.
Primary functions
The Notification Engine provides the following primary functions:
- Determines notification recipients (group or individual)
- Specifies the notification text
- Initiates the notification delivery (email or pager)
- Logs the notification details
For more information about the Notification Engine, see Notification Engine configurations.
