Provider-Specific Custom and Extended Fields

Some plugins include custom fields, extended fields, or custom attribute fields that enable you to specify fields that you want to reference. You can specify them in custom column entries in addition to all of the other types of fields available. This enables them to appear in the collection columns in the associated widgets, such as Requests and Deployment Units.

Provider-Specific Custom Column Fields

All providers that associate requests or deployment units have provider-specific custom column fields pre-defined so that you can use those for column data in Requests and Deployment Units collections.

Some providers use extended fields and custom attributes in conjunction with custom column fields to populate and format the collection data. Examples of these include SBM and ServiceNow.

For the list of custom column fields for your plugins, see the following:

Aliases for Similar Provider-Specific Fields

Aliases are a type of general field that should be used if you are using multiple providers for deployment units or requests. Alias fields should be used instead of the related provider-specific field to avoid having the same type of data appear in separate columns.
