History Objects
History objects are where your staff (and clients) add things such as Notes and email conversation for a given module. Incident/Service Requests have client notes and staff notes captured in the Incident History object. Tasks have staff notes captured in the Task History object, and so on.
For the purpose of this document we are specifically addressing only the following History objects:
- Release History
- Broadcast History
- Configuration Item History
- Change Request History

Incident
The Incident object holds data as it relates to both Incidents and Service Requests. However, Client/Staff provided answers to Service Request questions are not maintained in the Incident object (unless you have configured your system to copy data over). The details provided by Client/Staff as a result of Service Request questions are held in the Request Detail Inputs object which we will cover later.
You can encrypt the following Incident fields.

Incident History
The Incident History object is where details of an Incident/Service Request are maintained such as when staff send an outgoing email via email conversation or they add a note. Additionally if Client’s send an email that is part of email conversation or add a note on their Incident/Service Request via Self Service those are captured in the Incident History object as well.
You can encrypt the following Incident History fields.

Incident History exceptions

- RichTextNote (BMCServiceDesk__RichTextNote__c): Shield Platform Encryption does not support Rich Text Area data types. However, we want to make you aware that if incoming email that is used to create an Incident or Email Conversation (both outgoing and incoming) are sent or received in HTML/Rich Text then this field is written to. We are currently working on a way to disable any data being written to this field when a customer indicates they need Encryption on a History object; however this will mean we cannot support Rich Text emails and all communications will be in plain text.

Request Detail Inputs exceptions
- Richtext Response (BMCServiceDesk__Richtext_Response__c): Encryption of Rich Text fields are not supported by Salesforce at this time. The field called “Richtext Response” cannot be encrypted. If you have Request Definitions that use the Response Type called “Text Area (Rich)” you should considering converting to the Response Type to “Text Area” if you think that sensitive data might be provided in the Text Area (Rich) field.
To find out if any of your Request Definitions refer to the Text Area (Rich) type you can run the following query against your database. This query will return the names of all Request Definitions that use the Text Area (Rich) Response Type.
SELECT BMCServiceDesk__SRM_FulfillmentInputs__c.BMCServiceDesk__FKRequestDefinition__r.Name FROM BMCServiceDesk__SRM_FulfillmentInputs__c WHERE BMCServiceDesk__SRM_FulfillmentInputs__c.BMCServiceDesk__ResponseType__c = 'Text Area (Rich)'
For Remedyforce Summer 17, we will have a report that runs this query for you. Additionally, if you elect to create a Request Definition input field using Rick Text, you’ll have to acknowledge you understand the risk before you can save the input.
Service Request
Service Request records are actually part of the Incident object, but warrant their own mention here. While Service Requests are part of the Incident object, the answers or inputs provided by Clients and Staff aren’t held in the Incident object (unless you “map” the data). So where exactly does that data reside?
The first object that customer’s think of is the Request Definition object; however, we do NOT recommend that you encrypt any fields in this object. This object holds the framework of what constitutes a request. In other words, the Request Definition object holds the name of the Request Definition, what services and templates are linked to the Definition, the dates the Service is available, the questions being asked, etc. It does not hold any responses.
Likewise the Request Detail object stores data about a submitted Service Request such as Date Expected, Date Required, Total Cost or Price of the request. While this is data about a specific request, it doesn’t hold what we would consider as Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
The object that you DO want to encrypt to protect data provided by Clients and Staff in response to a Service Request is the Request Detail Input object. This is where all the answers to questions that are part of a given Service Request are stored.
Salesforce Standard Object
Currently Salesforce Platform Encryption does not support the encryption of any standard fields on the User object. However, as Remedyforce has added custom fields to the User object we felt it important to document those custom fields and the availability of those fields to be encrypted.
You can encrypt the following User fields.
