BMC Service Request Management as a Catalog source

You can use BMC Service Request Management to build your catalog in BMC Helix Digital Workplace. In this use case, Service Request Definitions (SRDs) created in BMC Service Request Management determine the services available in the catalog. The SRDs also determine how the requests are fulfilled, which can be from incident requests, change requests, and work orders in BMC Helix ITSM. The following diagram illustrates the catalog sources and data flow for this use case:
