Hi Alok,
You can build report on metrics (metric_instance) table by selecting proper 'Definition', 'Table', 'Field' and 'value'.
Metric definitions for Assignment group and Assigned to fields are available OOTB for many tables.
If its not available on your table you can configure it. Refer metrics
Check following report as sample:

Hi Sachin,
Thank you for the response 🙂
Can we implement the same functionality in our custom table (the table where tickets get created and handled). We want to restrict customer to give access to metric instance table.

Yes Alok, you can create new mertic definitions on custom tables for needed fields.
You can manage access with ACLs. Ideally users associated with a ticket record should have read access to the metric instance record.

Hi Sachin,
Lets say for example.
I have a custom table 'xzy'. We have fields assignment group and assigned to on this table. so my query here is can we implement the functionality here by creating fields (Date and Time) and capturing the time when assignment group/assigned to changes. As user has access to this custom table, so they can track how much time spent on a case by each assignment group or specific person (so we could track the time a case moved between teams / people).
