Service Catalog Integration: Request Fulfillment

Service requests are created and approved in the Service Catalog module. The end user, through the Employee Self-Service web interface, can browse the service catalog and submit service requests. The Service Catalog allows users with approval permission to review and approve service requests through the same Employee Self-Service web interface:

The IT technicians can monitor the service request processing in more depth. They have access to the resulting service request, which is a Service Desk interaction of a specific type, or can monitor the progress of the request through the fulfillment module.
End users can track the status of their requests through the Service Catalog end-user interface. End users can also review the details of their requests. They can make changes to a request and resubmit it. If a request is held up in the approval process, the requester can see the problem and act on it. Empowering the users helps minimize frustration and prevents more calls to the help desk.
Service managers can track the status of service delivery through fulfillment records created in HPE Service Manager.

The Service Catalog will automatically synchronize the state of the service request with the state of the underlying fulfillment processes, even when, for some complex requests, the fulfillment is carried out in parallel in different modules.
