Relationship of service request status to fulfillment request status


Service requests from BMC Service Request Management can generate fulfillment requests, such as incidents, change requests, and work orders. Although incidents, change requests, or work orders inherit characteristics from the service request on which they are based, they have life cycles of their own.

Important

In Remedy with Smart IT, the Initiated status is called Planning. For more information, seeSubmitting service requests using Smart IT in the Smart IT documentation.
