In change form configuration item field allow to select only one CI but I want that multiple CI must be selected.

I tried to change the type from refrence to list but there is error (Invalid update). So how can it be possible.

Gunjan you will have to use the Affect CIs related list to attached Multiple CIs to a Change if it is not already there.   Right click at top of form, click "Related Lists" and find "Affected CIs" and add the related list.   Unfortunately you cannot use a GlideList data type to add multiple entries for the CI field.


Thanks for reply



But I am confuse related Affected CI and Impacted Services/CI's related list are they different or same. If different then what is difference.

The Affected CIs list points to the entire cmdb_ci table while the the "Impacted Services/CIs" list points specifically to the Business Services table (which is one of the extended tables that makes up the whole CMDB).   I understand this may be confusing but Business Services are considered CIs themselves.

Hi Gunjan,



Another option is to make this field as Primary CI.


And create another field Affected CIs with list as type next to Primary CI.
