Service desk can gather information
before deciding whether it is an incident or a service request.
Easy creation of incidents or service
requests straight from the call ticket.
Relevant data is taken over
automatically.
Fast processing of requests.
Fast overview of open requests and pending tasks: Call Tickets Incidents Service Requests Problems RFCs Activities
User specific settings:
Selection of processes Allocation to the tabs Easy and fast filtering
Drilldown by double click on the

Incident Management
Incident Management has the objective to restore the IT service as fast as possible after an interruption or failure to make sure the effects on business operations are reduced to a
minimum.
The Service Desk – the single point
of contact (SPOC), can be accessed through web service portal, email, phone, external systems
Incident tickets can be registered
and classified quickly
Tickets are created either
Integrated with the Knowledge Base
to provide standard solutions quickly and to facilitate first-call resolutions
Integrated with the CMDB to
automatically show the possibly affected CIs of the reporting user
Integrated with SLM to perform
entitlement checks, to select the appropriate SLA and the
corresponding time targets automatically.
Request Fulfillment
A service request is a request by a user for information, advice, a standard change or access to a service.
Interface for submission of requests
for standard services and new services
Providing an individual service
catalogue to the customers. It differentiates between services covered by an SLA and services billed at cost.

Normal Change
Standard Change
(pre-approved)
Emergency Change
Linking of related Incidents,

Management of individual CABs per
RFC
Change Management – Planning Changes
Web based approval of RFCs Maintaining a change calendar
Problem Management
The objective of Problem Management is to prevent problems and incidents, eliminate recurrent incidents and minimize the impact of those incidents that cannot be prevented by controlling the lifecycle of all problems. A Problem is the unknown cause of one or more Incidents.
Avoiding and limiting the losses of IT
services that result from errors, failures and problems during business operations.
Recording and maintenance of
Known Errors and workarounds in the Knowledge Base
Automatic copying of data from the
related Incident tickets

information, such as incidents, RFCs, affected CIs and
Service Asset & Configuration Management
Service Asset & Configuration Management controls all configuration items (CIs) of an IT organization. All CIs including their relations and dependencies shall be stored centrally in the CMDB (Configuration Management Database).
Definition of all CIs and their
interdependencies
Generic approach to modelling of all
types of CIs
Flexible and unlimited
extendibility of models
Future-proof
Relationships of a CI with Incidents,
Problems and RFCs are tracked automatically
Relevant SLAs and OLAs/UCs are
Knowledge Management
The objective of Knowledge Management is to improve the quality of the decision-making process by ensuring that reliable and secure information is available during the Service Lifecycle.
Supports ITSM processes and IT
service customers in the search for important information.
Standard solutions for Incident
Management
Known Errors for Problem
Management and for providing Workarounds for Incident
Management
Collections of descriptions,
articles, suggestions and documentation of customer
Access through the OMNITRACKER Service Portal:
Provide self-services, e.g. the
Solution Wizard for finding solutions using the solution tree
Access to the FAQ that are
administered in the Knowledge Base
Knowledge Management – Access through
OMNITRACKER Service Portal
Service Catalogue Management
The objective of Service Catalogue Management is the development and maintenance of a Service Catalogue that contains details of all services available for deployment.
The Service Catalogue can be
published through the
OMNITRACKER Service Portal
The catalogue can be arranged into
a freely definable tree-structure, e.g. services can be grouped for specific audiences
Services can be requested by
creating a service request ticket directly from within the catalogue
Service Level Management
The objective of Service Level Management (SLM) is to enter into contracts with the
customers of the IT organization. An important task of SLM is the monitoring and assessment of the quality and quantitiy of the services with respect to the Service Level Agreemenst (SLA) agreed on.
A Service Contracts contains one Service Pack per ticket
process.
A Service Pack contains one Service Level per Priority. For each Service Level time targets are defiined.
Availability Management
Availability Management ensures that the delivered availability level for all services complies with or exceeds the agreed requirement in a cost-effective manner.
Availability Management monitors,
measures, analyses and reports the following aspects:
Availability Reliability
Maintainability Serviceability
Ensures that the delivered
availability level complies with or exceeds the contractually agreed requirements
Capacity Management
Capacity Management ensures that IT capacity is provided in all areas of IT in a cost-effective and timely manner and that it is matched to current and future business requirements.
Manage capacity plans
Contributing to diagnosis of
performance issues
Investigating the impact of changes Capacity plans provide information
on:
Current utilization of resources Required resources
Definition of requirements: Flexible combination of
Access Management helps to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability
of assets by ensuring that only authorized users are able to access or modify them.
Access Management implements the policies of information security

Interface to the operation
management system
Automated handling and correlation
of system event messages received
Pro-active detection of potential
incidents
Linking of related incidents,
problems and RFC tickets to track measures taken
Category Management is used to do
skill-based routing within the ticket processes.
Categories are displayed neatly
arranged in a category tree.
Management of activities (work assignments) resulting from customer service
processes. Activities are linked with service tickets (Incidents, Service Requests, Problems, RFCs).
Supports resource planning Tickets are linked with Activities
Activities can be aggregated in process models
Efforts made to process tickets or to complete other tasks are recorded within
the Activity to support service cost calculation.
Aggregation of activities that usually
have to be performed in certain situations:
Activities for setting up the
working environment for a new employee
An employee changes the
department, so that new
permissions have to be granted and outdated permissions have to be withdrawn
Activities for replacing hardware For each process model it is defined
in which processes it can be used.
If a process model is linked to a
ticket, the activities for the ticket are
