Copy Change (CR) and Release Records (RR)

Mark_WahlertMark_Wahlert Customer Advanced IT Monkey ✭✭✭

Following on from existing feature "Create Problem and Create Change tasks on work item forms", this could be a task to copy records. 

We don't want dozens of CR or RR templates, and activities can be slow to work through. Instead of starting a new template from scratch, it would be helpful for an OOTB solution to copy a record that's prefilled with 90% of the content you will keep. This will save hours, especially when your C&R process could include several activities. *we don't offer console access to analysts only admins.

    This is a must have feature!!!!

    Agree - our users/analysts enter the same information over and over. This would be a most welcome feature.

    we use SCORCH and a custom task to do a copy to new as we wanted to copy the activity info. 
    if your not worried about copying the activities the attached files will give you a basic copy CR function.
    It will prompt you for the template to use then copy the data from the existing CR (such as implementation plan etc. into the new CR) it is actually a variation of the script provided on the downloads page for converting a IR to SR.

    We operate similarly--no console access except for admins.  For those who are comfortable with JS and the API, it is fairly trivial to adapt the Cireson IR/SR conversion tasks into a "Copy this CR" task. (I did a similar take on this too, before I knew @R_Delawder was going to write it for us! :) ) So far, it has been a well-received feature here, and has not hurt interest in creating templates. I would still prefer to see Cireson make this an OOB feature.  +1!

    Upvoted this.  Our IT users typically move changes into multiple regions (4+ regions) and the Copy CR function helps. @R_Delawder 's customization is great but creates the CR right away committing all of the copied fields to the new Change Request without an option to edit any fields prior to the CR being In Progress. It would be nice to see Cireson do this OOB.

    This will save tons of work.   Initially we were planning to customized CR for those who make the same requests over and over. That development time wouldn't be needed.

    Hi, we still have issues with this. Is there a way to set the new CR to a On Hold status? Or code to add that would change the new CR to On Hold?

    Is this going to be something thats implemented? We have a use case for this
  • Jason_MeyerJason_Meyer Customer Advanced IT Monkey ✭✭✭
    Revisiting this feature request.  Today our discussion was around how CRs just need a "copy to new" option like IR and SR has.
  • Tom_HendricksTom_Hendricks Customer Super IT Monkey ✭✭✭✭✭
    I have to agree here, contradicting my own earlier posts.

    Recent updates to the popular browsers and other security updates have made the custom copy script run worse and worse over time, if at all.  This was a well-received customization but is now the source of many complaints.  This one needs a vendor-based solution, now.

    I have attempted to write my own Copy To New based entirely off the IR and SR copy tasks, but it fails on pushing the viewmodel to the new page.  Maybe the CR form just isn't able to receive it like the others?  It would be much better if Cireson just handled this.  :)

    Upvoted, this has been requested by our analysts as well and would be great if it was implemented as a default option :) 
  • Peter_MiklianPeter_Miklian Customer Advanced IT Monkey ✭✭✭

    There's a task named 'Copy To New' in the task pane in opened IR/SR.

    Can't Cireson reuse this one for CRs, are CRs so much different from IRs/SRs? Thanks.

    This seems like a good add in option for the portal

    @R_Delawder Are you using this solution in the latest baseline version?


    I get to select the template but have no OK or cancel option.

  • Sean_TerrySean_Terry Customer Advanced IT Monkey ✭✭✭

    Realised the html needed changing so I found another example:

    <div> <!--Make sure you have an outer div if you are putting this in a kendo window-->

      <div id="createCRHTML" class="form-horizontal">

        <div>

          <div class="col-group">

            <div class="inline-spacing">

              <label>Please select a CR template:</label>

            </div>

            <div class="inline-spacing">

              <select id="templateselected" data-role="dropdownlist" data-bind="source: dropDownData, events: { change: valueChanged, dataBound: valueChanged }" data-text-field="Name" data-value-field="Id"></select>

            </div>

          </div>

          <div class="window-buttons">

            <button data-role="button"

                class="btn btn-primary"

                data-bind="enabled: okEnabled, events: { click: okClick }">

              OK

            </button>

            <button data-role="button"

                class="btn btn-primary"

                data-bind=" events: { click: cancelClick }">

              Cancel

            </button>

          </div> 

        </div>

      </div>

    </div>
