When including comments to an Incident before saving it, the history doesn't reflect modifications to other fields in the incident that also were modified....
Does anyone know why Helpdesk, Edit Incident mode i(vs 6.5) doesn't add all the changes made to an incident if/when comments are added?
For example: If we make a change to the categories, workers, status, etc fields and save the incidnet, the history reflects all the changes made to the fields.
However, if we add a comment, the history ONLY reflects the comments does not show the changes made to the other fields. It's important for us to see all the modifications made to each saved ticket in our organization.
Details Button
You can hit the "Details" button that's listed on the right side just above your comments.

It resides on the "History:" bar and looks like this:
This way you can see that information, but it won't muck up your comments section.

Thank you so much for responding so promptly. I was just discovering the Details icon as you were writing your reply, In fact, I immediately go back online to the forum to say I think I found my own answer so I woudn't take people's time on helping me. I'm so glad people like you take their precious time to read/reply to the forums. Thank you again! Laura

This posting is from the old juice site -*sigh*- It'll allow you to always show the full history by default:
"To always show "More History" when editing a ticket in Altiris Helpdesk, do the following:
Save the file and you're done."
The credit for this goes to the original poster asbeer450
Aha! I knew I'd seen that
Aha! I knew I'd seen that somewhere before. I still prefer the "Details" option from a neatness perspective, but I knew it was possible. Thanks for digging that up.
