Installing

How to download and install the 1E Core app and perform post-installation configuration steps.

App Installation

The 1E Core app is available on the ServiceNow app store and can be installed onto your ServiceNow instance using the following steps:

1. Browse to the ServiceNow App Store using the following URL: ServiceNow App store.

2. Click the Log In button at the top-right of the ServiceNow Store to log in.

3. In the Login popup, you will be prompted to enter your credentials. The username and the password should be the ones provided when you created your ServiceNow support account.

   

4. After you've logged in, find the 1E Core app from the list of available apps.

   

5. Click the application from the list and, then click the Get button to start the installation of the application.

   

6. The 1E Core app will now automatically install on your ServiceNow instance. The ServiceNow Instance details are already available in ServiceNow because they are part of your TPP credentials.

   For administrative users, when switching between ServiceNow apps, ServiceNow does not always change the app context. This can cause the app page properties to be grayed out, preventing edits of the properties. ServiceNow will sometimes display a message at the top right of the page to this effect:

   • "Warning Message: This record is in the <application you just switched to> application, but <the previous app> is the current application. To edit this record, click here."

   • Clicking on "click here" will correct this issue, but given that this message doesn't always occur, it is best to allow the administrative user to change app contexts as needed. This is done by:

     1. Select the user from the users list to open the user details page.

     2. Click on the Settings (globe) icon in the top right corner.

     3. You can set the Domain scope, Application scope, and Update set from here.

     4. Ensure the Show application picker in header option is enabled.

   • The administrative user can now select the current application from the ServiceNow header.

In case, you already have the 1E Core application installed on your ServiceNow instance, but an older version of it. Then you should upgrade your 1E Core application to the latest version.

Before upgrading, ensure that the following tables have been backed up:
