Jul 24, 2012 12:07 PM

We have released a data dictionary for ServiceDesk 7.1 SP2.  The full article can be found here http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO77292 .

Aside from the ServiceDesk specific tables, this data dictionary can also be used for Workflow 7.1 SP2.  

ServiceDesk reporting data dictionary

All ServiceDesk reportable data is stored in the Process Manager database. The Process Manager database holds data that is required for general Process Manager database operations. This instruction provides information about the tables that commonly hold reported data and the relationship of these tables to each other.

 

Tables in the Process Manager database


Tables

Description


Item Base Tables

These tables contain base data about an item.


Item Detail Tables

These tables contain additional details for Item Base Tables.


Process Data Tables

These tables contain process data for ServiceDesk or custom processes.

These tables are expressed as ProcessProfiles in the Process Manager portal.


Reference / Relationship Tables

These tables are used to manage the relationship between records without adding additional detail fields.

Several common keys are used to link records across these different tables. Depending on the table, the key fields in the table may have different names than their key values. Use these key field types to link the various tables.
