Is it possible to exclude a catalog item from contextual Search in Incidents

gmccullough · ‎12-17-2018

I am utilizing contextual search when users submit incidents. I have an employee on boarding Order Guide that shows in the section below the short description when submitting an incident with New Employee in the description. When they click the Order button, it does not follow the Order Guide process. So I have 2 choices, figure out why it is ignoring the Order Guide Role Bases or exclude it from the contextual search. (IMPORTANT: I have to be able to search it everywhere else) I thought it would be easier to exclude it than try to fix the root cause. Maybe I was wrong. 🙂

Thanks for any assistance you are able to provide,

Hello Gary, Our development team have looked over the PRB I opened and have turned my attention to a similar PRB which is a better match for this incident. PRB1293548 details an issue where Contextual Search on the Service Portal always opens records in the sc_cat_item page, rather than use the sc_cat_item_guide page for any Order Guide records that come up in your search results. PRB1293548 has been closed as Fixed in our upcoming Madrid release. Please upgrade a sub-production environment when Madrid becomes available to verify the issue has been resolved

I have set the state of this ticket to Solution Proposed for now. If you have any further questions, please let me know. I will be glad to assist you.

Hi,

Were you able to exclude forms post Madrid release?
I have a similar requirement where in I need to remove few catalog forms based on category from contextual result.

Could you please let me know if you were able to achieve the requirement and how?
