Configuration forms used when extending the Overview console

This topic provides information about the Overview console configuration forms that you use when extending the Overview console. These forms are available only to users with Administrator permissions and must be opened using the direct URL through BMC Remedy Mid Tier.

The following table lists the forms and their purpose:

Form name

Purpose

SHR:Union_DataSource_UsedBy

Define the implementation area

SHR:Union_DataSource_Forms

Define the source data forms

SHR:Union_DataSource_Fields

Define the union fields that appear in the AR View Form

SHR:Union_DataSource_FieldMappings

Define how the source fields map to the union fields

SHR:Union_ConfigurationConsole

Used to view the configuration and build or rebuild the database union structure

SHR:Union_OverviewConsole

View form that points to the union view within the database

 
If you are including a selection field that will contain different enumerated values across the various source forms or request types, you must create a consolidated list of the values. For more information, see Adding new values to the overlay

For example, the following table shows how to map the Status Values (Field ID 7) from different request forms to the ConsolidatedStatus field, which is displayed on the Overview console. The matching consolidated status values appear in a list following the table:

  • Custom Status B (90003)
  • Custom Status C (90005)


Important

If the value already exists in the ConsolidatedStatus field, you do not need to add it again. If you are adding the custom values to the field, use odd-numbered IDs to reduce the chance of interfering with subsequent upgrades, which use even-numbered IDs.
