Problem Management Reports that include task root cause codes

[LuanneI]

How are companies creating Problem Management Reports to include root cause codes from tasks?

[Community Alums]

Hello @LuanneI,

You can achieve this by creating your report on the Problem Task [problem_task] table instead of the main Problem table. This way, you’ll have direct access to the Root Cause Code and other task-level fields.

Then, include the Problem (parent) details in the report by adding related fields from the Problem record, for example, Problem Number, Problem Statement, or Description.

Result:

This setup lets you view both the individual task data (like root cause codes) and the high-level problem context in one place.

 If my response helped, please mark it as the accepted solution so others can benefit as well.

Hi @LuanneI 

You can create a report on the PTask table and then dot-walk to the parent/problem record to get all the fields from the parent. This is the best way to do it.
