1) Approver-Requester Query-Answer through Remedy Email

Email has become a de-facto standard for formal communication. Approvers are generally high position authority and delay in approvals is a major challenge due to lack of efficient communication channels for information flow. BMC Remedy support approvals via email but cannot ask more clarification/question through Remedy email.

Vyom Labs provides custom Remedy email interface through which approver can ask more clarification/questions to requesters and requester can reply through Remedy email. All communications are recorded in Remedy for reference.

With Vyom Labs Custom Email Notification Package, approver will receive email with 4 options: Approve, Reject, Approval Central and More Information. When approver clicks on “More Information”, new email window will open in outlook where approver can put his questions & send an email.

System will capture the approver’s question and automatically sends new email to the ticket requester with the question; requester can respond to the same email. This email will be received by Remedy system and it will be forwarded to the approver.

Approver can go through the requester’s answer, if found satisfactory, approver will “Approve” the request or use “More Information” option again to ask query to the requester.

2) Active Remedy Email Notification for Support Staff Work Information

Requester & Support Staff Communication: If support staff keep the ticket in Pending Status for more information from requester and requester sends email to support for update on ticket; the support staff is actually unaware of the mail from requester unless they open the ticket in Remedy to check the work log for details of the email from requester and the ticket status remains in the Pending status.

With Vyom Labs Custom Email Notification Package, when the requester sends an email to the Remedy system for specific ticket, the response will be added into the Work Info of that ticket & the ticket status will be changed to “In Progress” from “Pending” and this will help support staff to quickly identify the Pending tickets.
