New Breakdown source

Hi Everyone, 

I'm trying to create a new breakdown source called parent product, I'm referring to a similar indicator source but cannot find out the element. 

Can someone help me find the element's name for the parent product in the choice [sys_choice] table?

New breakdown source:

Hi @Stimson ,

 

Sure:

 

1. Create the breakdown source:

2. Create automated breakdown

3. Create breakdown mapping in the automated breakdowns related list.

Hi @Stimson ,

 

Sure,

 

What i knew from the start was what you stated initial "element's name for the parent product" and that you referred to the sn_customerservice_case table (due to the screenshot you send).

 

According to above, I went to the sn_customerservice_case in my PDI and looked at parent field which referred another case in the sn_customerservice_case. Based on this, I looked at the field configuration through the "form Design" as showed below:

This will show that, the field reference "cmdb_model"

That was very helpful @AndersBGS, I have one final question, even though I've added few conditions on the top of the breakdown source. There are duplicates.


When I visited the product model table and grouped the table by parent there are only 122 of them. 

Is it possible to have a group by in the breakdown source?

 

With the condition on top of the breakdown source, I have  1,12,061 records, So it is impossible to add it breakdown as it goes beyond the limit.

Any idea for resolving it?
