Using the preconfigured integration for BMC Remedy ITSM

The OA Management modules are preconfigured to integrate with BMC Remedy ITSM. If your site requires a customized integration, use the BMC Remedy ITSM interface templates.

Note

If your current BMC Remedy ITSM configuration does not support tasks relationships, you must download and install the BMC Remedy ITSM Task Management patch (006) and create an OA Management module integration user account. The patch enables the assignment of multiple configuration items to IT Service Management tasks. BMC administrators and developers use this account to manage change and incident tickets in BMC Remedy ITSM. This account must be dedicated to integration application and not used by other users or applications.
