The integration framework can also take into account value conversions. For instance where a value in ActiveControl could equal one thing maybe its corresponding value in an external system could be different although they both mean the same thing. BTI/TE_INT_CONV is used to map the two values together and address these issues; the conversion can happen either way, which means that the fields can contain either ActiveControl or the 3rd Party ITSM value.
Field | Explanation of Field |
---|---|
EXTSYS_NO | Integration system number [from /BTI/TE_INT_SYST] |
EXTSYS_NAME | External System Name [from /BTI/TE_INT_SYST] |
EXTERNAL_REF | Field Reference |
EXTFLD_ID | External System Field ID. This is the External System field value that the conversion needs to take place on. |
EXTFLD_VAL | External System Field Value. This is the converted value that needs to be fed into the integrated system (or AC) Groups: GUIDs from /BTI/TE_GROUPS Types: GUIDs from /BTI/TE_TYPE Priority: Low = 1, Normal =2, High = 3, Emergency=4 Project: GUID from /BTI/TE_PROJ |
