Hi all
When I create a new Change Request from an Incident fields 'Short Description' and 'Description' are copied from Incident to Change.
I suppose a mapping "from incident to change" is defined somewhere. I need to know where I can configure or change this mapping
Regards

Field mappings between an Incident and a Change Request are configured in different ways:
Field Mapping in Business Rules
ServiceNow often uses Business Rules to copy fields when a Change Request is created from an Incident.
Navigate to System Definition → Business Rules.
UI Actions (Create Change UI Action)
When creating a Change from an Incident, a UI Action (button) might be responsible for copying data.
Go to System Definition → UI Actions.
Hope i can more detail, based on information you provided 😊
