Use the Boards nodes to automatically add, move or remove a Request from an existing Board. Requests can be added to one or multiple Boards in Service Manager, and can be moved between Lists on specified Boards automatically.

'''Please Note:''' Service Manager Boards have now been deprecated and replaced with [[Board_Manager|'''Hornbill Board Manager''']]. The available Board Manager business process operations are outlined [[Board_Manager_Business_Process_Workflow|'''here''']]. Use the Boards nodes to automatically add, move or remove a Request from an existing Board. Requests can be added to one or multiple Boards in Service Manager, and can be moved between Lists on specified Boards automatically.

Using ''Assign to Most Available Analyst'' is a great way to automatically assign out requests to the members of a team.  This operation works on the basis of capacity. The system will look through the members of the selected team and will assign the request to the member who has the least amount of open requests. If more than one team member have an equal number of open requests and have the least amount of assigned requests, the system will allocate the request to the team member who has had the greatest amount of time pass since their last assignment.
 
  
The system will take into account the user status which is found on their profile. If the user status is set to anything other than 'Available' that user/analyst/team member will not be considered as a request owner|

Use this node to automate the adding of a comment to an existing Post in a workspace. It will always look to add the comment to the most recent post from the request in the workspace. An example use case for this node, is to include the Comment Update after key milestones such as Logged, In progress, Resolved, Closed or Change Accepted, Scheduled, Implemented, Reviewed.  This will allow members of the workspace to stay informed about request progress without the need to monitor lists or queues. This node will only be applicable if the '''Post to Public Workspace''' Node has been used and a Post already exists from the request in a Workspace.|

Using ''Assign to Most Available Analyst'' is a great way to automatically assign out requests to the members of a team.  This operation works on the basis of capacity. The system will look through the members of the selected team and will assign the request to the member who has the least amount of open requests. If more than one team member have an equal number of open requests and have the least amount of assigned requests, the system will allocate the request to the team member who has had the greatest amount of time pass since their last assignment.

In order for this to work effectively when taking into account users logged in status, users will need to be disciplined in logging off Hornbill. Simply closing the browser window does not end a users session(s). We would also strongly recommend that you disable the allow multi-logon option on your instance, otherwise taking into consideration a users Logged On status will be unreliable.}}

The default behavior (Auto) is to include offline users.  Set this option to ''No'' if you don't want requests assigned to users that are not online. In order for Round Robin to work effectively when taking into account users login status, users must become disciplined in logging off Hornbill via the User menu located to the top right. Simply closing the browser window does not end a users session. We would also strongly recommend that you disable the allow multi-logon option on your instance, otherwise taking into consideration a users Logged On status will be unreliable.}}

* Progressive Capture Answers
+
Use this node to automate the adding of a comment to an existing Post in a workspace. It will always look to add the comment to the most recent post from the request in the workspace. An example use case for this node, is to include the Comment Update after key milestones such as Logged, In progress, Resolved, Closed or Change Accepted, Scheduled, Implemented, Reviewed.  This will allow members of the workspace to stay informed about request progress without the need to monitor lists or queues. This node will only be applicable if the '''Post to Public Workspace''' Node has been used and a Post already exists from the request in a Workspace.|

Use this node to add a new post to a specific workspace. This will allow you to post important information to Collaboration users pertaining to the request.
  
Use this option before a '''Decision''' node, if you want to load into the process the '''Answers''' from Progressive Capture Custom Forms.  By selecting this option, you can load and make available the answers to progressive capture custom forms, to then evaluate in following '''Decision''' nodes. 
+
One example of it's use would be during a Change Request, to let interested parties / stakeholders (Workspace Members) know that the Change had been accepted, scheduled and would therefore be being deployed.  The member's of the workspace may not be Service Manager subscribed users, but their Collaboration subscription would enable them to be kept informed about Change, Problem,  or Major Incident notifications by receiving notifications about the automated '''Posting''' from this node to their workspaces. |

{{bullet1|Update Timeline|Include a Timeline update on the request when this automation has completed}}

An example of the use of this node could be if you have created a custom form which asked questions about a new start, and one of these questions was to determine which Department they would be joining, it is feasible in your business process that you may wish to check the answer value, and if it was '''Sales''' then branch in one direction, and if it was '''Accounts''' you may want to branch in another direction.  Using the Get Request Information > Progressive Capture Answers will allow these answers to be evaluated in a supporting business process.

This provides the ability to update any or all of the custom fields of a request.  The input box is single line only and values should be restricted to 255 characters which is the defined max length for all custom fields.  When populating custom fields please pay attention to the type of value you are populating, and ensure this is compatible with the type of field you have specified for the corresponding custom field in the request type and service form designer in the user interface.

===Request Timers===
  
 
Use the Request Timer nodes at any stage in the process to either start or stop the Response and or Resolution timers.  It is not a perquisite to have to use any timers within processes or to have to use both Response and Resolution timers when timers are used.
 
Use the Request Timer nodes at any stage in the process to either start or stop the Response and or Resolution timers.  It is not a perquisite to have to use any timers within processes or to have to use both Response and Resolution timers when timers are used.
 +
 +
There are some settings that control the default behaviour of the Service Level Timers.  The settings provided to pause or stop the resolution timer when resolving a request are as follows:
 +
 +
:* ''app.request.pauseResolutionTimerOnResolve''  (Default OFF)
 +
:* ''app.request.resumeResolutionTimerOnReopen''  (Default OFF)
 +
:* ''app.request.stopResolutionTimerOnResolve''    (Default ON) 
 +
:* ''app.request.stopResolutionTimerOnClose''      (Default OFF)
 +
<br>
 +
{{bullet1|Using settings to control resolution timers|You should choose the relevant settings to meet your needs, but note that app.request.stopResolutionTimerOnResolve will take precedence over app.request.pauseResolutionTimerOnResolve so ensure only the one you want to use is enabled.}}
 +
 +
{{bullet1|Using BPM nodes to control resolution timers|If you are using this BPM node to control resolution timers the four settings above should all be turned off; If any settings are enabled then they will take precedence over BPM actions. To enable pause/resume of a resolved request you can add the Timer > Pause Resolution Timer or Timer > Resume Resolution Timer BPM nodes as required in your BPM process.}}
