Take back an Incident

When the endpoint system owns a record, the related Incident record is read-only in Service Manager. In case the endpoint system does not respond or something unforeseen happens, you may want to take back the ownership of the record. To take back the ownership of an Incident record, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Incident record.
  2. Click Update.
  3. Choose an appropriate value in the Activity type field, fill the Description field.
  4. Select the Take back control check box.
  5. Click Next.

The ownership of the record then returns to Service Manager.
