Incident data model: Categorization

HPE Service Manager categorizes or classifies Incidents according to the following information:

Category
Subcategory
Area

In an out-of-box Service Manager system, Service Manager automatically applies the Incident category to the new Incident that you create. If the Incident Management module has other customized categories, you need to select a category when you create a new Incident. Based on the selected category, Service Manager presents a filtered set of choices for Area and Subarea.

The Incident record also captures the ID of the failed CI or service, including the failing component.
