Is it possible to create a weekly report of Tickets opened and resolved based on Service Centers?

We have a field called Service center (eg. EMEA, LATAM etc) and we want to create a weekly report of number of incidents opened from each region and resolved from each region every week.

I tried creating a list report, a pivot table etc, but all the report types consider the actual timestamp when I put in the "created" field of the incident as the time measure. I want it to be aggregated, eg. Incident created today at 6 pm, today at 7 pm and yesterday at 6pm, should be aggregated and counted as 3 incidents in the week 16th august to 29th August. I tried creating a line chart with the trend field, but the grid cannot be exported as an excel file.

I am attaching a screenshot as a reference of the type of report we want to create as an example. Currently we are doing it manually through excel, but we would like to know if we can leverage the power of SNOW in this.

If your going to get it to excel anyway, you can try this: Connect to ServiceNow from Excel ( NO ODBC)



Just get the data from sys_history_line and go from there.

Hi Apoorv Mehta




This is an easy report when using Performance Analytics. Most of what you need to create a report that displays all opened and closed incidents per service center are out of the box.




The only thing you need to do is create a breakdown on the field service center and create the widgets to show on the report.


And the best part is you do not need to export the data to excel and create a manual report every week! Furthermore the reports are actionable, meaning you can click on the report and access the tickets on which the report is based.



Here is a screenshot as an example:

This example is by Assignment Group, but that's easily changed to your custom service center field.

Hi Vincent,




Can this be exported to Excel? Is there a wiki article on how to do this breakdown in PA?


Hi Apoorv Mehta,



The question is why would you want to export it to excel? By exporting it to excel there is always the matter of data quality. By keeping you reports in ServiceNow you always have a single source of truth which reduces the discussions on whether the exported data is correct. Each widget from Performance Analytics can be added to every personal dashboard. So it is accessible to all users in ServiceNow (with the pa_viewer role). If you have ServiceNow with Single Sign-on it 's the easiest way of accessing you reports which are always up to date. Create them once and they are updated every time a job runs to collect the scores for your indicators.



To create standard breakdowns you can use this servicenow wiki page:

If your service center field is a choice field, you could use the standard way of creating an breakdown. Otherwise you could use the more advanced breakdowns like I've explained in this post:
