Adding an Organization

An organization in Service Now represents a unique Clarify site ID in Juniper Support Systems (JSS). Clarify Site IDs identify customers when JSS provides technical support. Multiple organizations can be defined in Service Now, which allows you to manage multiple sites (each with its own Clarify site ID) with one Service Now installation. This is done by dividing the network into multiple logical customer sites. To communicate with JSS, a Service Now organization requires a site ID, login name, and password.

To add a Service Now organization:

  1. From the Service Now task ribbon, select Administration > Organizations > Add Organization. The Add Organization dialog box is displayed.
