Introducing Auto Translation

Every person was already able to specify his or her language in 4me.  This ensures that 4me’s user interfaces are presented in the user’s preferred language.  Now 4me can automatically translate any note that is written in a language other than the user’s preferred language. People can switch the ‘Auto Translation’ option on or off […]

Introducing Remaining Effort

Project managers can specify the planned effort for each assignee of a project task. The actual effort increases every time an assignee enters a value in the Time spent field of the project task. 4me then used the actual effort and the planned effort values to determine the task’s progress.

Retrieve a CI’s Service Instance with Automation Rules

The capabilities of the automation rules have been extended further. The automation rules are now capable of retrieving the service instance that a configuration item (CI) is a part of.

This can be accomplished with the following JavaScript in a UI extension: ITRP.field(‘attachment’).size() The JavaScript example below prevents someone in 4me Self Service from submitting a request without adding at least 3 attachments: $(‘#save’).on(‘click’, […]
