Hi,
The issue Jeff is experiencing could be related to the granular permissions set within the SCSM role definitions. Even though Jeff has access to the 'Active Windows Systems' view and the 'Desktop Services' Configuration Item group, it's possible that the 'Desktop Services Team Operator' role does not have permissions to view certain properties of the Configuration Items, such as the 'Serial Number' field.
In SCSM, permissions can be very specific, and they are often defined in the User Role profiles and scopes. A User Role in SCSM is a combination of a Profile and a Scope, where the Profile defines the operations that a User Role can perform, and the Scope defines the objects that can be operated on. If the scope or the profile for the 'Desktop Services Team Operator' role is limited, it may not include the permission to view certain fields like 'Serial Number'.
To resolve this issue, you may need to review the User Role profile and scope for the 'Desktop Services Team Operator' role to ensure that it includes permissions to view all the necessary fields of the Configuration Items. If the permissions are not set correctly, you might need to modify the User Role to include these permissions.
