    • An incident record is created when an event management system generates an alert and the affected accounts can be viewed in the Service Operations Workspace.

    When the technical support engineer logs in to the Service Operations Workspace, the affected configuration item, services, and customers are listed in the Overview section. These details are automatically updated when the Configuration Item in the Incident record is updated. When the Configuration Item is updated, the Refresh Impacted Services script is automatically triggered and retrieves services that are experiencing an outage or degradation. The impacted services associated with the accounts are identified and updated. Additionally, if a CSM agent associates a case with the incident record, the Affected Account list is also updated. When the Affected Account list is updated, the customer impact is visible to the support teams working on the incident record.

    The following diagram shows the steps involved in creating an incident record.

    注:
    The Change Management workflow follows the same process. When a configuration item is updated in a change request record, the Refresh Impacted Services script is triggered and the affected accounts are retrieved. Since the configuration item field is set to read-only, you must ensure that this field is populated before the script is triggered. See Create a case from a change request for more details.
