Hi,

Can you please explain your requirement further?

Thank you

Hello Prasad,

Apart from the regular requests that we configure on the service catalog, my customer is looking to configure non-standard requests also referred to as NSSR. These are generally mini-projects which customer raises requests for a quote to its vendor partners and the vendor partners submit the quote and the request gets closed.

There are approval cycles involved when the requests turns into a proposal and submitted. Those should be based on the type of tower, application selected etc.

I was checking to see if ServiceNow has any tables, tools , recommendations to best handle these NSSR or from our community, have we done somethign similar and can share their best practices.

 

 

Hi,

I can suggest 3 things

1. Use Cost Transparency module of ServiceNow

2. Instead of Service you can also create Custom Application for it.

3. Setup Service Request having standalone category as NSSR and have specific user criteria set for those items

Thank you
Prasad
