Hi @Debasis Pati 

 

"Out of the box (OOTB), it gets added to the 'Incident Fixed by Change' field, not under the 'Parent' field.

CHG and INC are not having parent <-> child relationship between them.

when you create CHG from INC you don't populate the parent field on CHG.

the Change Request field on INC is updated with the CHG you created when you click that UI action in SOW

Yes Atul,
But is there a way where i can add the change record's parent as the incident it's the ask from client.

"You’ll need to make quite a few changes, my friend — and doing so can break the system. It’s not just about updating one field mapping; you’ll also need to modify the UI Action and remove the default mapping between Incident and Change.

I’d suggest advising the client that this is the way the system is designed out of the box. There’s no parent-child or many-to-many relationship between Change and Incident, so it’s best not to force such a structure. Please avoid this approach to maintain system integrity.

Thanks Atul,
For the clarification i will suggest the same.
Even i also thought this like one change can fix multiple incidents.
and in that case we can't have one incident as  the parent of the change.
am i correct?
