Hi @Varsha5 , 

Applying some logic for services & category depends upon the org business case. 

Service field is reference type pointing to cmdb_ci_service which has category & sub-category String type field and Incident's category & sub-category belongs to Choice [ sys_choice ] table. 

 

Now, you have to consider the org need, are you looking for all Services based on selected category & sub-category from cmdb_ci_service table or vice-versa.
