Configuration Items based on Category&Sub-Category

[samwallace881]

I am trying to limit the Configuration Item list to a specific few that depend on Category and Sub-Category.

When I choose a Category and corresponding Sub-category, In the CI field, I want only certain CIs to be in the drop down.

How can I do this?

I notice that some of my CIs don't even have a Category section when I go to create a new one.

Open the CI field dictionary and add an advance reference qualifier:

javascript:"category="+current.<your category field name>+"^subcategory="+current.<your subcategory field name>

Hardik-

I am now getting to work on this and I don't know if this will work. I have multiple Categories and Subcategories...my plan is to limit the number of CI's available based on the cat/sub-cat choices. I only want a certain number of CI's to show up when I have cat/sub cat selected. If cat/sub-cat are empty, I can see all of the CI's. If I do what you said, I am limited to only one set of category and subcategory...How would I be able to add more options? Script include?

Figured it out. I need to use Assignment Lookup Rules

Hi Sam,

But using this you can provide only one CI . this will   not be good if you are required to show 10 or 20 CI for Cat/Subcat.

Thanks & Regards
