Hi @Mary  ,

 

You can navigate to the 'sys_choice' table, and select the table as incident and element as state, you'll see the values of the state field for incident record, these are OOB, you can create new one's based on the requirement.

Hi @Mary  ,

You may right click on the field then choose Configure Dictionary. Go to the bottom of the form and look for the 'Choices' tab. The actual value should be on the 'Value' column.

@Mary  I recommend you to install SNUtils extension on Google Chrome to quickly check the choice values of a field on a ServiceNow form on the fly, instead of going into the choice list and checking those values each time.

Hi @Mary  ,
I trust you are doing great.

  1. Go to the ServiceNow homepage and navigate to the left-hand side menu.
  2. Click on the "Dictionary" module.
  3. In the Dictionary module, search for the table that contains the "State" field. For example, if you're looking to configure the "State" field on the Incident table, search for "incident" and click on the corresponding table.
  4. Once you're on the table's dictionary page, search for the "State" field and click on it.
  5. On the "State" field's dictionary page, scroll down to the "Attributes" section.
  6. In the "Attributes" section, find the "Choice" attribute and set it to "true".
  7. Save the changes to the dictionary.
