On-Call Schedules group selector in SOW showing all groups — how to filter groups?

Within the Schedules tab in Service Operations Workspace, the group selector on the On-Call Schedules page is displays all groups on the instance — including inactive groups, non-assignment groups, and assignment groups with no rotations configured.

 

How can the dropdown list be configured to show only groups that have active rotations? Thank you!

This happens because the Group picker on the On-Call Schedules page is using a broad reference to sys_user_group without filtering for rotation-enabled groups.

To restrict it so it only shows groups that actually have active on-call rotations, you need to add a reference qualifier (or modify the data source used by the Workspace widget).

Best Practice Fix (Service Operations Workspace)

In Service Operations Workspace (SOW), this dropdown is usually driven by a UI Builder Data Broker / Script Include, not just a simple field.

You need to filter groups based on whether they exist in an active rotation.

Thank you for your response, Abinaya. Could you provide the specific steps or navigation path to apply this? For example, which field or data broker needs to be modified?

Hi Abinaya, 

 

Just wanted to follow up and see if you could assist here with specific steps.
