List Collector display value does not match display_name

Hi I'm trying to figure out how one of our tables is working

I have a list collector set against cmdb_software_product_model

The drop down shows only the name of the software without the manufacturer

However, on the table name and display_name show the full names of the products including the publisher

in the catalog item there isn't anything set for the variable attributes that might be changing it. Where else might the display value be changed?

Hi @jyan3 ,

 

What you have there is basically in the Table configuration the "Display" field selected. Just do the following:

1- Navigate to the sys_db_object table

2- Look for your table cmdb_software_product_model

3- Search the "Name" or "Display Name" field

4- Select "Display" as true on the checkbox

 

If you want to have more attributes showing as second field you can configure the "Variables Attributes" basically this:

ref_auto_completer=AJAXTableCompleter,ref_ac_columns=publisher
