Hi,

I need to append short description of template to the short description of incident form.

ex. if short description of incident is "test" and if I use any template and it has short description as "Template test"

then the short description field of incident display as "test Template test" without erasing incident's short description.

please suggest.

You'd need to customise your instance to achieve this.

The UI Macro "template_context" could be modified with additional code to append to the short description.

If you are going to customise anyway, I'd offer a better technical solution.

You could instead track how many and which template was applied:
