Previously Assigned To

I'm looking for a way to display on an incident form the last user an incident was assigned to. I need to do this because we are using a tool to automatically assign incidents to the service desk and if an incident is simply rejected to the service desk there is a high probability it will be assigned to a different member of the team.

 

TIA

Sorry about that, I should have been more specific.



You likely need to take these steps:



  1. Delete the "Previously Assigned To" field-- do this by right clicking on the field label, say "Personalize Dictionary" and then use "Delete".

  2. Recreate the "Previously Assigned To" field, this time making sure to specify that it's a reference field to the User (sys_user) table.

Thanks Garrett, perfect for my specific requirement

as said above, one of the possible way is to create a new field. But I am always against creating new fields for every new requirement...



I might go for the option of either using metrics table or the history table to do this...



There is trade off of few extra glide queries but I will go with that


it will be in the activity formatter will it not? so I wouldn't check metrics or add a new field, just get them to look at the activity log


yup that would do as well


That works for me Mark, should have spotted it.



Many thanks
