Thanks to hosts Geoff Endresen and Rick Cook for sponsoring this meeting. This was
the Agenda.
Northwest Remedy User Group Meeting
January 16, 2001
Minutes by Rick Cook
- This meeting was held at the Herrick Douglass office in Bellevue.
- Geoff Endresen demonstrated the new version of Elegant Software’s Sync
tool, a free download from http://www.elegantsp.com.
- The free version is not guaranteed to work with Remedy 4.5 features,
though it will under some circumstances.
- Geoff demonstrated Elegant Software’s Copy Entries utility, which works
with the Sync tool to bring over data from one server to another.
- The utility overwrites the existing data with that from the source
server.
- It is much faster than Export/Import or Migrator.
- You can copy data to/from all forms or just selected ones.
- Geoff demonstrated the new Remedy Wireless (WAP) product. http://www.remedyhd.com/arwrls/enu/arwrls.jsp
- It is a menu-driven interface to the Remedy system.
- The communication between the phone and the system is two-way.
- You can create, query, and modify tickets using any of the WAP-enabled
cell phones referenced in the Remedy documentation.
- View fields one at a time in query/modify mode.
- Built on Java Server pages (JSP), so it is as easy to modify as AR Web
4.0.
- Some types of Query menus are not supported, as are many other Remedy
functions. Check the documentation for exact details.
- Suggestions for improvement?
- Make Search menus work
- Make Query function work more smoothly.
