This documentation supports the 20.18.01 version of BMC Remedyforce.

Adding related lists to a module

Related lists enable staff members to link records of a module to another module in the Remedyforce Console. For modules that are available in the View menu in the Remedyforce Console, related lists of other frequently-linked modules are provided out of the box. However, you can also configure related lists for additional modules based on your requirement. For example, to enable staff members to link related incidents to an incident record, add the Linked Incidents related list to the Incident object.

You can also edit related lists to add or remove fields or buttons that are displayed in the list. For more information about buttons that you can add to related lists of different modules, see Valid buttons for related lists of modules

Note

Same related lists are shown in the Incidents and Service Requests modules because both the modules are based on the same Incident object.

  2. On the Home page, click the Manage Objects tile, and from the menu select, Create and Edit Objects.

  7. Click Related Lists.
