An additional keyboard short-cut (CTRL+SHIFT+F) will present a popup search box for directly accessing a particular request. The full request ID must be entered. This can be accessed from anywhere in Hornbill.

Request Type Filters

The Request Type Filters options are represented by the icons that are associated to each request type.

The available request types include incidents, problems, known errors, changes, and service requests. Depending on the rights you have, there may be one or more of these request types visible. Provided that you have rights to more than one request type, you will also see an 'All' option which will display all requests, independent of the type, in one list.

By holding down the Shift key on the keyboard and clicking on the different request types, you can have more than one request type selected and displayed in your request list

Group Filters

• All My Teams - Displays requests belonging to all of your teams
• All My Services - Displays requests belonging to any of the services your teams support
