Creating New BIA and issues with Business Process table

[jhammond944]

When creating a new Business Impact Analysis through the Workspace, the product is requiring an entry in the "applies to" field.  This is pointing to the cmdb_ci_business_process table.  My question is how are entries in the cmdb_ci_business_process table created?

Hi @jhammond944 ,

While creating the BIA, you need to focus on both the fields "Applies to table" and "Applies to".

"Applies to table" you get it from the Template you selected which is the Primary element assessed and "Applies to" will open up the table which was called in the "Applies to table" field, then you can select the business process in the "Applies to " field.

Applies to table	Table that stores the template's primary element data.
Applies to	Business process, business application, or any other asset that is assessed in the BIA.

I understand that - the question was how to create entries in the cmdb_ci_business_process table.  I got that figured out today, has to be done from the classic interface, then the table entries can be referenced from the Workspace interface.

@jhammond944 HI,

In the same scenario, is business process data updates same as BIA (like name, description, status) etc?
