Grouping Assignment groups in an interactive filter

[Elizabeth10]

I need to create an interactive filter that has :

All Tech hub (list of 30 assignment groups)
2/3 level (list of 50 assignment groups)
ServiceDesk ( list of 6 groups)

I don't want the actual "list"  to be shown I just want to choose "all tech hub", "2/3 level" or "ServiceDesk" and the reports will update based on the groups contained in these.

How do I do that? I have tried with "group" and "cascading" but can't get it to work as I want

@Elizabeth10,

Seems one Dynamic filter won't work for the 3 'parent' groups.  You will need one for each parent group. I've tested the following, where in my instance, the 'Database' group is the parent on 3 other groups. And the 'HR' group is the parent of 14 groups. A single Script include will work for each.  The definitions follow.

Dynamic Filter:

The script include:

The script contents:

var GetChildGroups = Class.create();
GetChildGroups.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

   initialize: function() {
    },

	getGroups : function(grpName) {
        var grpid = '';
		var grp = new GlideRecord('sys_user_group');
		grp.addQuery('name', grpName);
		grp.query();
		if (grp.next()) {
			grpid = grp.sys_id.toString();
		}

		var result=[];
		var childgrp = new GlideRecord('sys_user_group');
		childgrp.addQuery('parent', grpid);
		childgrp.query();
		gs.info("GetChildGroups: Found " + childgrp.getRowCount() + " child groups.");
		while (childgrp.next()) {
			result.push(childgrp.sys_id.toString());
		}
		gs.info('GetChildGroups: Returning: ' + result);
		return result;
    },

    type: 'GetChildGroups'
});

Assuming you've set the 'parent' group on each of the many child groups.

Thanks - at the moment we dont have the parent groups to group them on.
But certainly worth a try - maybe someone else needing this can give some feedback if it solved the issue for them 🙂
