Configure a practice area table so you can use fields from legal request and legal
matter tables to include in the Lists section of Legal Counsel Center.

## Antes de Iniciar

Role required: admin

## Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

The record producer uses variables to store field information submitted via intake forms for a legal request or legal matter. If you have to use any of these variables as columns in the list view in Legal Counsel Center, you must add them as columns in the respective practice area tables. These practice area tables extend the Legal Request \[sn_lgs_ops_request\] table for legal requests and the Legal Matter \[sn_lg_matter_matter\] table for legal matters. For more information, see [Practice area tables for legal requests](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/8x1_4Z9qljHY0~INVuBRBg "Tables specific to practice areas are installed with the Legal Request Management application.") and [Practice area tables for legal matters](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/_Fh5pe9ds40tziOdRi0kEg "Tables specific to practice areas are installed with the Legal Matter Management application.").  
Nota:  
For using practice area tables for legal matters, you must have the Legal Matter Management installed.

## Procedimento

1. Add new columns in a practice area table that you want to use to create reports for legal requests or legal matters submitted for the practice area.  
   For more information, see [Add and customize a
   field in a table](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=t_CreatingNewFields&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US).
2. Create or modify a record producer for a legal request or legal matter for the associated practice area.  
   For more information, see [Create or modify a record producer for legal services through Classic environment](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/IwAMVedR7~MPncn5MzRMpg "Create or modify a record producer to define an intake form for a legal request. Employees can use these intake forms on the Legal Service Portal to submit legal requests.").
3. Update the business rule to synchronize variables with the mapped table columns when users modify the intake form data after they've submitted a legal request or matter.
   1. Navigate to System DefinitionBusiness Rules.
   2. Open the Sync variable with mapped columns business rule.
   3. In the When to run tab, add a new OR condition for the category.  
      For example, to synchronize the variables of a Compliance intake form with the mapped columns of the Compliance \[sn_lg_ops_compliance\] table, you would enter the following OR condition:

      \[Category\] \[is\] \[Compliance \[sn_lg_ops_compliance\]\]

   For more information, see [Create a business
   rule](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=c_BusinessRules&version=australia&pubname=australia-build-workflows&section=t_CreatingABusinessRule&ft:locale=en-US).
