Hi Community,

 

If there is vlookup applied in excel, then how to create reports for this? Is there any functionality related to vlookups in servicenow?

 

Thanks,

Hi @Poorva Bhawsar 

 

Now you bring the real use case 😀

 

So now it come to SN, and lets see in which tables these 2 records get stored are in same table or 2 different table?

 

It is like like I want SLA and Incident records where inc record exits in SLA table. 

 

1st Get the both field table

Then see is it same or 2 different table

3rd , how these 2 tables related like as related list or what

Create DB view or use standard reporting ( if Related list is the case ) and get the result.

Then if there is vlookup applied in excel then how we would be creating reports for those? Is there any alternative for this? or we can achieve it using database views by connecting multiple tables.

if using vlookup we are getting value of a field, then how to create that field into a servicenow custom table?

Example is given above with screenshot.

Hi @Poorva Bhawsar 

 

You need to create a new field in the required table to store that value.

yeah that i know but how i would be calculating or populating the values if its have a vlookup which is applied on a field and have vlookup for 2 columns in the table and based on those columns values its populating the value of this vlookup one field.

Hi @Poorva Bhawsar 

 

The report will just provide the data after matching, it  will not be set in any field.
