Support groups

Support groups are used to define groupings of support staff, based on their skills. Service management requests such as incidents, problems, and change requests are assigned to a support group and, during the life of the request, are sometimes referred from one support group to another.

  • The support structure can differ from the organization structure.
  • A support staff member can belong to many support groups.
  • Vendor support groups can be defined to support external assignment of requests.
  • The Support Group role must be specified for information only; there is no associated workflow.
