Create Change Request from Incident - field mapping

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

Did you check the UI action code?

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

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 😊
