a. The APM account you provided when creating the integration point (see Create an Integration Point between Micro Focus APM and UCMDB).

b. Time when the request is created for the first time in APM.

c. The following mapping rule is used for this mapping:
<target_mapping name="REQD.APM_RATING_BUSINESS_CRIT" datatype="STRING" value="APMPushFunctions.getPropertyValue('bc', Root['business_criticality'].toString() , '')"/>
where the definition of ‘bc’ token is defined as follows in the server.properties field:

bc.0=0 - Least critical
bc.1=1 - Slightly critical
bc.2=2 - Less than average
bc.3=3 - More than average
bc.4=4 - Critical
bc.5=5 - Highly critical

When synchronizing the Business Criticality field from UCMDB to APM, if the value is ‘1’ in UCMDB, then the field value will be set to ‘1 - Slightly critical’ in APM.
