Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.

Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |

Reassign Incident Resolution
One of the tasks of the Incident Analyst is to review and identify incidents received from the incident investigation and diagnosis process that need to be reassigned to another group, because the Incident Analyst does not have the necessary permissions to implement the resolution.
To reassign an incident:
- Click Incident Management > Incident Queue or view your To Do list.
- View and identify any incidents with a resolution (shown in the Solution field) that cannot be accomplished because you do not have the applicable permissions.
- Update the Assignment Group and Assignee fields with the applicable group and operator.
- In the Activities section, do the following:
- From the New Update Type field list, select an update date.
- In the New Update field, type a description of the permissions required to implement the resolution.
- Click Save & Exit.
