Assign Locations to a Change Category

If you assign a location to a change category, tickets in that category are auto assigned only if a matching location is found. For example, a change order is auto assigned if there is an eligible analyst at:

• The affected asset's location
• The affected customer's location

If the affected asset or customer has no specified location, the change order is assigned to the default group and assignee. If these defaults are not defined, the change order is left for manual assignment.

Note: For more information, see the Administrator Guide.

1. On the Auto Assignment tab of the Change Category Detail page, click Update Locations.

   The Location Search window opens.

   The Locations Assigned Update window opens.

3. Use the arrow buttons to move available locations to or from the Locations Assigned list.
4. Click OK.

   The Locations Assigned Update window closes and the Change Category window displays the assigned locations.
