BMC Service Request Management enhancements
The following sections provide information about the enhancements in this release of BMC Service Request Management.
Tracking automated work orders for continuous service automation initiatives
IT service management automation initiatives are often challenged to identify the most important activities to automate, and to report back the progress of automation to the IT and business stakeholders. For analyzing and tracking the service management related automation opportunities in an organization, process owners or service request managers can use the Service Automation Dashboard in Smart Reporting. For populating reports on this dashboard, an Automation Status field is introduced on the work order template form that can be filled while creating or managing the work order templates. While developing automation logic, this field can be set to track the success of automation. For more information, see Setting-up-automated-work-order-tracking.
