On a catalogue item, I've got a field called Business Application that only populates the name of the selected Business Application:
However, what I'm wanting to do is include the number of the Business Application next to the name, so it looks like the following:
This are the current details of my Business Application field:
Does anyone know what I need to change to include the Business Application number starting with AL
Hey there,
1. Create a new string field on the table your services reside in e.g. [cmdb_ci_service] (do not forget about inheritance)
2. Populate that new field via BR on insert/update (initially maybe a fix script/background script for existing services)
3. Use a catalog variable of type lookup select box (Attention: 10k record limit! more will not be loaded)
For that type you can select the table and the specific field you want to show to pick from.
The new field`s values eventually needs to be set to be unique as else you`ll end up with identically looking entries.
Testing the item:
That should do the trick.

Another way could be to set the new field as the display value for that table - but that will be effective throughout the whole system and may not be the desired state - but could also be just fine.

Hope this helps. I guess there are also other ways. - but those two are what i would likely go for.
Cheers!
