Add Child of Incidents to Problem tickets

Cat

Hi all,

 

We may attach a parent incident to a problem. Is there a way to add the list of child incidents to the problem? These are incidents where they are only attached to the parent - not the problem. Only the parent would be attached to the problem.

 

Thanks,

Cat

Thank you Ankur, this is very helpful, I will check this out and then let you know how I get on!

With this approach, you are duplicating data that already exists in the Incident record and then showing it again on the Problem record. My recommendation is to use the out-of-the-box (OOTB) approach unless there is a specific compliance requirement.

The request is that they can easily see how many incidents are affected by a problem. OOB I would have expected that it would link the child incidents. If the problem is only identified after the incidents have been closed, they would have to link every single incident to the problem rather than just the parent incident.

Got it, mate. But I would still recommend trying to stick with the out-of-the-box (OOTB) approach.
