Can you easily pull downgraded incident tickets in ServiceNow?

Hello,

Can you easily pull which incident tickets have been downgraded? Would this only be able to be used when SLAs are used?

Hi Nick, 

There are ways that your ServiceNow admin teams can help you retrieve this information from the audit table if it's for a one-off exercise. 

If this is for an ongoing reporting requirement, I'd suggest that you add a field to the record (though not to the incident form) called "Incident Downgraded" that is either True or False, and would be False by default. You can then ask your ServiceNow admins to write a rule that automatically makes that field "true" when an incident is downgraded. 

This would then allow you to easily report on those tickets. 

Hope that helps
Mike

Hi Nick,

Another suggestion could be to do your report requirement from the incident_metric table post creation of a metric definition.
